Mistletoe is a flower that thrives in cold/winter and played a significant role in Norse mythology. The plant often signifies someone wanting to be kissed, unification, and protection. Persephone bloomed these when Hades came to her aid in Tartarus (along with the glowy butterflies). Fun fact: mistletoe is a parasitic plant! Previously, we thought this might be lily of the valley (who really knows, but mistletoe is a better guess!).

The cherry blossom is a flower of springtime and due to its short life span, can also represent the transient nature of life or youthful, feminine beauty. Persephone created this initially as a defense mechanism against the shades who attacked her in Tartarus, but it grew larger when she was on the run and almost went into hibernation.

“I’m a terrible King.”

“Assemble.”
