The flower language of Lonicera: Tying knots of love
Lonicera is known as the love tree of China. Because many people in love believe that if they want to have a long-lasting sweet love and happiness, they just need to tie two knots in the same direction on the branches of Lonicera, and this wish will come true.
Lonicera, also known as "dream flower" or "knotting flower," is a deciduous shrub. In March, the flowers bloom before the leaves and have a strong fragrance. The branches of Lonicera always fork into three branches, hence its Japanese name "Sansho." One of the most distinctive features of Lonicera is its tough bark, which makes the branches soft and flexible enough to tie knots without breaking. This characteristic gives it the flower language of "tying knots of love."
Lonicera is called the dream flower in the "Flower Spectrum" by Wang Xiangjin of the Ming Dynasty. It is said that making a wish in the morning after waking up, based on the dream of the previous night, is the most effective, hence it is also called the dream flower.
