I've always thought this plant on my rockery was an erigeron. My neighbour says it isn't! Who's right? I'd like to identify it because it is a bit leggy and I want to deal with it properly.
You are correct.
Looks like Erigeron glauca.

Maybe your neighbour has Erigeron karvinskianus which looks very different...with tiny daisy flowers.
