Myrtle Value:
the tradition of wearing myrtle wreaths for a wedding extends to the back in antiquity. Myrtle was revered by the ancient Greeks, Romans, and Jews, and myrtle wedding garlands were popular throughout medieval Europe.
With the popularity of the romantic style, finely crafted myrtle diadems have become an established and widespread tradition throughout Europe, especially in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Myrtle was considered a flower of Aphrodite and a symbol of faithful love. It is also considered the chosen flower of Venus. Three graces are often depicted in the flower crowns of myrtle. The ancient Greeks and Romans associated myrtle with romantic love, birth and marriage.
