Snapril - Week 4: Nature - Ingredients and Blossoming
A big thank you to @reinekefoxart, who is incredibly well-versed in flowers. She helped me pick out which flowers would suit his character.
Bindweed: Is associated with perseverance and resiliency. Bindweed can survive in harsh environmental conditions. It is also a symbol of bondage - the bindweed winds and attaches itself to other plants, which can damage and suffocate their growth.
Fraxinella (Dictamnus): Also known as ‘burning bush’ because they are phototoxic - when hit by light, the flowers emit a vapour that can be ignited. Despite being very tricky to handle, fraxinella is utilised for medicinal purposes.
Achillea (Yarrow): Is named after Achilles, who used this flower to treat fallen soldiers during the Trojan war. Thus, the flower is a symbol of well-being and healing. It is also a symbol of enduring love. Achillea represents people who are deeply in love and are willing to do anything for their love.
Daisy: They symbolise new beginnings and rebirth, in addition to love, beauty, purity, and hope.
