Merveille is French for "marvel, wonder".
Which I feel this lovely Aster is?
If your birthday is in September, let the Aster bring you good luck.
With the vast array of colours and sizes that Asters, also known as starworts, come in (over 600 species).
Not only are they lovely, these flowers will not fade as quickly as other flowers in arrangements.
This flower is often used to symbolise afterthought or true love.
A love of variety is associated with this flower as well.
In China, the aster signifies fidelity.
The name "aster" has Latin origins meaning "star".
Many stories tell the origins of the Aster, but the most popular ancient myth explains how asters were created from stardust as Virgo, also known as Astaea, the goddess of innocence cries over sin on earth.
Her tears fell as stardust, covering the earth with asters.
This myth gives light to the Aster's star-like beauty and shape.
Have a wonderful day, filled with love and beauty, M, (*_*)

most Asters are still widely referred to as "asters", or "Michaelmas daisies", because of their typical blooming period.
Asters are the grande finale to the perennial garden, displaying vibrant fall colours in shades of pink, yellow, red, purple, blue, and white.
They’re also one of the last great feeding opportunities for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators.
For gardeners, it’s a two-for-one deal: beautiful blooms and a flurry of attractive wildlife.
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

Aster (Symphytrichum sp) in NP Lobau. The background was a bit nervous and I could not get rid of it lowering the contrast; I then tried the opposite and increased the contrast. Now i am pleased with the bokeh.

I found this Cabbage white butterfly (Pieris rapae) on a New England aster (Aster novae-angliae) blossom earlier in the month. There are still some butterflies around but most of the aster's yellow has faded to brown. There are no vegetables in the garden so I'm not worried about the Cabbage white caterpillar's appetite. Yesterday we challenged record heat and the first frost will come leter this week, ah Autumn.
