"It's a Cherokee Rose. The story is that when American soldiers
were moving Indians off their land on the Trail of Tears, the
Cherokee mothers were grieving and crying so much 'cause they were
losing their little ones along the way from exposure and disease
and starvation. A lot of them just disappeared. So the elders, they
said a prayer; asked for a sign to uplift the mothers' spirits,
give them strength and hope. The next day this rose started to grow
where the mothers' tears fell. I'm not fool enough to think there's
any flowers blooming for my brother. But I believe this one bloomed
for your little girl." -Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus), The Walking
Dead, 2011 "The Cherokee Rose" Celebrating the strange and unusual,
