What plant images are used in poetry to describe love?

Lotus: Like compassion, poetry expresses love. For example, "Xizhou Qu" by Yuefu in the Southern Dynasties: Lotus is picked in autumn in Nantang, and the lotus is over the head; Bow your head and get lotus seeds, green as water. Lotus seed is Reiko Kobayakawa, and youth is love. There are both real and imaginary here, which means pun. The rhetorical device of homophonic pun is used to express a woman's deep yearning for the man she loves and the purity of love.
