The language of Begonia flowers
Begonia is also known as the相思草 (affection grass), broken-hearted flower, and August spring. In history, there was a touching and tragic love story, which was the touching story of Tang Wan and Lu You.
According to historical records, when Lu You and Tang Wan had to part ways, Tang Wan gave Lu You a pot of Begonia as a token of思念. When Lu You asked Tang Wan what kind of flower it was, Tang Wan sadly replied: This is the broken-hearted red. Seeing this, Lu You's thoughts were in turmoil, and he said impulsively: It should be called affectionate red. After that, Begonia was known as affectionate red in the world. When people's love encounters setbacks, they often use Begonia flowers to describe themselves, calling it a broken-hearted flower to express the sadness of male and female separation.
"The Journal of Picking Orchids" says: In ancient times, there was a girl who missed her beloved, because she couldn't see him for a long time, she often cried sadly on the north wall, and her tears fell on the soil, and soon a plant grew and bloomed light red flowers. This is Begonia. "The Compendium of Materia Medica" also says: It is said that in ancient times, someone spit blood on the ground because of longing, and this plant grew, so it is also called affection grass.
Begonia has the nature of being externally soft and internally strong, and is a symbol of the strong fighting spirit of women. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the female revolutionary Qiu Jin had an emotional attachment to Begonia, which blooms in the autumn wind without relying on the spring light and dares to fight against the dark forces. Qiu Jin wrote a poem to express her aspiration: Planting in the rain and dew together, one cluster light and one cluster dark. I don't rely on the power of spring, but I bloom several times to fight against the late wind.
Therefore, the language of Begonia flowers is bitter love, broken-hearted. In addition, the symbolic meaning of Begonia is: a wanderer missing his hometown, parting sorrow, gentleness, beauty, and happiness.
