History


Lavender


In the Renaissance, Lavender was used as
a reliable herb to fight off infection and seen as
a cure all herb. Lavender was also used as an insect repellent and for household cleanliness in the Victorian Era. Due to the overuse of Lavender, it lost it popularity in the 20th century, being labeled as an "old lady" scent.

Sunflower


In American Indian Tribes, Sunflowers would
be used for ingredients to make food. For example,
the seeds would be grounded into a flour to make cakes or bread. The seeds could also be used to split open and eat like a snack. Besides food uses, the flowers were also used to create dye, most commonly purple dye, for textiles and decor.

Chrysanthemum


Chrysanthemums were first grown in China as
a flowering herb in 15th Century B.C.E. They then
grew in popularity in Japan during the Edo period
( 17th - 19th century ). They were then diversified and created with multiple different colors, shapes, and varieties.

Lily of The Valley


Mythology says that Lily of the Valley is a
flower that sproted from Eve's tears when she
was kicked from Eden's Garden. It was also given its nickname Mary's Tears by Mary crying at the cross. The flower is also believed to be the second coming of Christ.
