Description
There's a flower, called Heliotrope, and the myth goes like this:There was a Greek maiden (Clytie) who fell in love with the sun god Helios. She loved him so much, all she did was watch him pull his chariot across the sky. For nine days and nine nights she stayed exactly where she was, drinking dew and her own tears. On the tenth day, her body started turning into a stem, and her face a flower. That's how Clytie became a flower. (the flower actually does follow the sun.)
The paper I used was too big for my scanner, so I had to put all most of it together on my computer. That's why the colors might be darker or lighter. Sorry.
