What is the flower language of the sunflower?

Silent love, love that is never spoken aloud. The flower language of the sunflower is faith, radiance, pride, loyalty, and adoration; its meaning is silent love, representing the courage to pursue the happiness you want. Although the sunflower's bearing is not as romantic as the rose, nor as pure as the lily, it is sunny and bright, loving openly and honestly, loving without ever letting go, with a unique charm all its own. And what it blooms is not only love, but also a passion for dreams and for life.

What legends are there about the sunflower?

1. Legend one: Clytie was an ocean goddess who was once the lover of the sun god Helios, but later Helios fell in love with the Persian princess Leucothoe. Furious, Clytie informed the Persian king Orchamus of the relationship between Leucothoe and Helios. Orchamus ordered his unchaste daughter to be buried alive. When Helios learned of this, he completely broke off all contact with Clytie. The devoted Clytie went for days without food or drink, gazing at Helios as he drove his sun chariot rising in the east and setting in the west, growing more haggard by the day, and in the end she transformed into a sun-facing flower (sunflower).

2. Legend two: Clytie was a water nymph. One day in the woods she met the sun god Apollo, who was out hunting, and she was deeply captivated by this handsome god and fell madly in love with him. But Apollo did not even glance at her and walked away. Clytie eagerly hoped that one day Apollo would speak to her, but she never met him again. So she could only gaze at the sky every day, watching Apollo drive his resplendent golden sun chariot across the sky. She fixed her eyes on Apollo's course until he set below the horizon. Day after day, she just sat there blankly, her hair disheveled, her face haggard. At sunrise, she would look toward the sun. Later, the gods took pity on her and turned her into a large golden sunflower. Her face became the flower disk, forever facing the sun, following him every day -- Apollo, telling him of her never-changing love and adoration. Therefore, the flower language of the sunflower is ------ silent love.

3. Legend three: In ancient times there was a farmer's daughter named Minggu. She was simple and honest, and grew up pretty, but her stepmother, the “female tyrant”, saw her as a thorn in her side and subjected her to every kind of humiliation and abuse. Once, over a trivial matter, she talked back to her stepmother, which enraged the stepmother, who used a leather whip to beat her, but missed and struck her own biological daughter who had come to mediate. The stepmother was both furious and hateful, and at night, while Minggu was sound asleep, she gouged out her eyes. Minggu, in unbearable pain, broke down the door and fled, and died not long after. After her death, a bright yellow flower bloomed on her grave, facing the sunlight all day long; it was the sunflower. It expresses Minggu's yearning for light and her loathing of darkness. This legend inspires people to hate violence and darkness and to pursue light. And so the sunflower has multiplied to this day.
