In the language of the Rohirrim, simbelmyne, that is 'Evermind', 'for they blossom in all seasons of the year, and grow where dead men rest'. Those were the same flowers that bloomed on the burial-mounds of the Kings of Rohan below Edoras.

Menelmacar was a constellation, not a single star. But depending on where you referenced your answer from, you could be correct. It is not the answer I was looking for but if Jes thinks it is ok, then I will have to give it to you.
