* ''Series/TheLordOfTheRingsTheRingsOfPower'': Various elvish characters are associated with the Alfirin flower in the show. Alfirin, in the Sindarin, means ‘not dying’, and for Elves it represents the light of Valinor, finding comfort in its eternity, which matches their own. Adar and Arondir adhere to an elven ritual of planting the seeds before battle, in the hope of something new growing after the war passes. Despite being on opposite sides, they are both fighting for the same thing: a home for their people. When they both plant the seeds of Alfirin in the ground, is implied they are asking for Yavanna's guidance, the Vala of nature.

A character adorned with flowers or has flowers as a visual motif to show their NatureLover nature or GreenThumb abilities. Often goes along with a pure heart, simple wisdom, and humility, or other "natural" virtues.

As such, it's a form of GoodGuysGarb.
