Myth and Folklore: Asters
According to my dictionary, botany is “a branch of biology dealing with plant life”. That’s pretty succinct, huh? And the word “biology” keeps it all within the confines of science. But many wildflowers have more of a story than simply a “botanical” one. Many wildflowers have rich, or at least entertaining histories in folklore and myth, where science was a lot more bendable, and it wasn’t all pistils and sepals. And when it was all pistils and sepals, it was something mysterious, cosmic even. Asters, for example.
