The forget-me-not is a very common plant. The reason why it was given the poetic name "forget-me-not" is derived from such a beautiful legend: In ancient Europe, there was a knight who brought his lover to the seaside for a visit. When the lover saw a cluster of small flowers by the water, she wanted to pick them to wear. To express his love for his lover, the knight waded into the water to pick them. Unexpectedly, the tide surged and carried him away. The knight threw the cluster of flowers hard onto the shore and shouted, "Don't forget me!" Later on, people called this flower the "forget-me-not." Since this flower embodies a deep love, it is regarded as the sentiment of flowers. When a man and a woman are in love, they often make it into a bouquet to exchange with each other, representing the longing feeling of "forget-me-not" and expressing their deep love for each other.
