ASTER


THE MEANING & SYMBOLISM OF
aster

With their wildflower beauty and lush texture, asters have long been considered an enchanted flower. In ancient times, it was thought that the perfume from their burning leaves could drive away evil serpents. Today, they’re known as a talisman of love and a symbol of patience. Also known as starworts, Michaelmas daisies or Frost flowers, the name aster is derived from the Greek word for “star.”  /teleflora





The photos of Aster flowers were taken at the Gillies' vegetable garden in Palasaan, Mankayan, Benguet province.
