Flowers determine love: There is a system of pulling flowers apart petal by petal reciting “she loves me” and “she loves me not” to learn the truth about the sincerity of the significant other.
Named for fighters:Gladiolus flowers got their name because the leaves of the plant were shaped like a sword and made them think of the Roman gladiators. Daisies after death: When mentioning an enemy that had been killed during battle a person might say that he is now “pushing up daisies”.
