I'm trying to identify a plant that my Aunt always called an October Daisy. They are perenials. The plants resemble bushes. There are single woody like stems that come from the center of the bush/plant, with each stem having only one flower come fall. The flowers look like a daisy with white petals and a yellow center. Leaves on the stems are fleshy like. Any idea what this is?

If this is it, it's a Helianthus Angustifolius (Asteraceae) commonly referred to as a Swamp Daisy or October Daisy.

Georgia, Those are pretty, but not them.
These have white petals, and they grow great in sandy soil.

Heath Aster, also known as Hairy Aster or Soft Aster? They prefer moist ground tho. And they are still from the Asteraceae family.

There are many different varieties of asters - but given the description that you give and the time it blooms, I would say that aster is your likely plant. There is one in particular (Aster ptarmicoides) that especially likes dry, sandy soil.
