asÂ·ter. (Äsâ²tÉr) n. 1. Any of various plants of the genus Aster or closely related genera in the composite family, having radiate flower heads with white, pink, or violet rays and usually a yellow disk.
Asters supply nectar for butterflies. Asters (Aster spp.) usually grow as perennial plants. There are many species, however, and about 200 cultivars, with plant heights ranging from a few inches to 12 feet tall. Aster flower colors can be various shades of blue, pink, purple, red, white or yellow. Most of them bloom in the fall but there are some species and cultivars that bloom at other times of the year.
