[ all the collage options are at the end of the post ]
Lee Seolhwa is associated with camellia because of her gentle nature. She is a flower both outside and inside, at least I have seen and see her as such throughout the novel 🌸
And these meanings with the red, yellow and white camellia reminded me of her love with Yoo Jun Hyuk. Although they did not find a good ending (it is understandable why) in his past regressions, I think this balance between them is quite interesting, and this description with "love - nostalgia - expectation" suits them VERY well 🥀
some information and facts about camellia flower ;;
Camellia is endemic to Japan. Initially, camellia was used in everyday life: camellia seed oil was used for hair, its wood, dense and very durable, for making instruments, seals, and some musical instruments.
Ash obtained from wood is considered the best for reducing the acidity of sake, and it was also used as a stain (fixative) when coloring.
Leaves, flowers and fruits were also used to create medicines.
Culturally, the camellia flower is still an ornament of the tea ceremony. The meaning of camellia in Japan differs depending on its color. Red means love. Yellow means nostalgia, and white means expectation. Its flowering heralds the arrival of spring.
