Stages of Age...

This one's dedicated to Jane P. and her Aging Beauty series I enjoyed seeing so much. From youth to prime to old - fading away like summer.

What is this plant/flower/weed? I think this is the same flower that has been releasing the white seeds that have been floating around in the air here.
