Disney Princess Question

What flower do you associate with each of the disney princesses?


What flower do you associate with each of the disney princesses?

I wanted to see if I could find different flowers for each one, but some of them are associated with the same flowers like Pocahontas and Anna with sunflowers and Belle and Aurora with roses.

This is what I think

1. Snow White - Daisy (day, innocence, happiness)
2. Cinderella - Carnation (simple, traditional, beautiful)
3. Aurora - Rose (Briar Rose, lips that shame the rose)
4. Ariel - Forget-me-not (blue/wants Eric to remember)
5. Jasmine - Jasmine (in A Whole New World/ name)
6. Mulan - Cherry Blossom (end of movie scene)
7. Tiana - Water Lily (Water lily dress)
8. Merida - Thistle (Scottish flower, prickly, but pretty)
9. Rapunzel - Daylily (looks like the magic flower, sun)
10. Pocahontas - Sunflower (rolls in sunflower field)
11. Anna - Crocus (in end of the movie, 1st flower after winter)
or Sunflower (her dress in Frozen Fever)
12. Elsa - Snow Drop (beautiful, graceful white winter flower that is still alive in the snow)
13. Moana - Hibiscus (island flower)

This is a great idea! I really agree with the flowers you picked and I think they fit each princess extremely well. Your ideas are mostly what I would've picked, so these are just some alternatives that I also think would fit well:

Snow White: calla lily (Pure white like her name, and they represent beauty, overcoming adversity, and rebirth, all of which fit her story extremely well.)

Cinderella: peony (One of my absolute favorite flowers, they just look so gentle and sweet like Cindy herself, and they are so fluffy they remind me of tiny ballgowns! Also, they symbolize riches, honor, romance, and prosperity, key aspects of her tale.)

Aurora: prickly wild rose (I definitely think a red rose fits her well, but I'd also like to nominate the prickly wild rose, not only because it matches her name, but because they are delicate and elegant, but still very much at home in nature rather than in a cultivated garden, and also they are pink like her ballgown. They symbolize love and adoration.)

Ariel: daffodil (This was a tough one, but I think daffodils fit her pretty well. They are bright and sunny like Ariel's personality and they symbolize rebirth, and Ariel was essentially reborn as a human.)

Belle: bluebell (Ok, so the red rose definitely fits her best, but I think bluebell is a close second. Obviously, it fits her name, but there's also the fact that she's the only character in town who wears blue. Bluebells also symbolize everlasting love and constancy, which I think can definitely be applied to Belle's relationship with her father.)

Jasmine: iris (This was another hard one, because obviously jasmine fits Jas best, but I think iris works well too since they symbolize royalty, wisdom, and valor.)

Pocahontas: Indian blanketflower (Yes, I am being super fucking cliche with this one, but hear me out. I really struggled to find one for Poca, but not only does this flower remind me of her tattoo, but it is also native to Virginia! Also, in my defense, I saw a photo of the flower and thought it would fit her well BEFORE I read the name.)

Mulan: plum blossom (Similar to the cherry blossom, and native to China, it symbolizes perseverance, hope, beauty, purity, and the transitoriness of life, which I think fits Mulan well.)

Tiana: ranunculus (I agree that water lily is best for Tiana, but I think ranunculus is a veeery close second because its name means "little frog" in Latin! So perfect! And they are gorgeous flowers to boot.)

Rapunzel: rampion bellflower (The flower Punzie was named for! So clearly I had to pick it. Plus, they are adorable just like Punz.)

Merida: borage (Ok, so nothing really fits her as well as thistle, but borage symbolizes courage and they're a deep blue like her dress, so... I guess it works?)

Moana: frangipani (Commonly found in tropical climates, these flowers can symbolize new life and renewal, which is exactly what Moana brings to her island.)

Let's see...I agree with Snow White, Aurora, Jasmine, Tiana, Merida, Pocahontas, Anna and Elsa.

You forget Belle, btw. In her case, it's the dandelion.

The flower in Mulan is actually a Magnolia. That's the meaning of her name, too.

And the flower in Moana is a fragipani. or Plumeria, which is very common in Polynesia.

Rapunzel is actually named after a flower, the rampion bell flower.

That leaves Cinderella and Ariel. I would use forget me nots for Cinderella, because the flowers on her title card look like forget me nots, plus, that is a flower of which various kinds of variation bloom nearly the whole year. And with Cinderella being forced into the tower, a plea to forget her not just fits her.

For Ariel, I would pick some water-related plant. Or simple corals, ever though they aren't plants.

Oh dang, how did I manage to forget about dandelion and magnolia for Belle and Mulan lol. I agree with those, they fit better than what I suggested.

@Sunnyfields it's not really clear what plant is meant in the fairy tale. There is a form of lettuce we call Rapunzel, but the rampion bellflower is a second possiblity...which happens to be purple and the magic flower in the movie kind of looks like a golden version of them. We habe a few of the spinach or radish like plants.
