The legend of Tu Cau Cam flower

Hydrangea Cam Flowers with many different colors are made into beams. Flowers bear the symbol of sincerity, if you want to thank or apologize to someone, give them a Cam Tu Cau as you say.

For a long time, when the new earth was formed, when people relied on hunting and gathering to survive, territorial possession was essential to assess the power of each individual group of people. human life entered the turbulent period, with the struggles of thirteen tribes and war going on constantly.

War with bloody slaughter, death made everyone angry. The biggest battle happened that the men who participated in the war left and no one survived. They leave the old mother, the wife, the small children who live in the wrong scene, climb each day.

But at the same time appeared a deity who solved all the war work ended, peace has come, people's life is warm and happy. When life is returned to peace, it is also when the goddess must leave. Before going to the goddess gave the power to a person who led the tribe.

And this power is given to the 16-year-old virgin. The girl began to change, she became as beautiful as a fairy, a thin white suit to replace the tribe's clothes symbolizing purity. 

After the festival, the prophet is brought to the temple for himself. Now, she is worshiped as a saint, but the price paid is that she will have to stay in the temple for six years and never get married after that.

The custom every 6 years is implemented once. Until the 127th time there was a girl named Li -a a beautiful girl as pure as an angel. She had a crush on how many boys wanted to marry her, but she only noticed Erike, the neighbor who grew up with her. The two-person marriage ceremony was planned, but the prophet selection session broke all. 

Li's parents canceled the ceremony and advised their daughter to participate in the prophet selection, because it was the family's pride, and yet it was unlikely she would be chosen, if not, the wedding would take place later. at the end of the festival. Even so, Li-a still cried that night.

In the ceremony Li-a silently prayed that the chosen person was not her, it was not the way she wanted, she just needed to be with the one she loved. But fate is still fate. Lebanon was chosen as a new prophet.

Erike painfully left the tribe and no one saw him anymore. Being in charge of being a prophet, Li never looked forward to seeing his lover again, every day she prayed for Erike to live peacefully in happiness.

Then after three years Erike returned to the village with the desire to see his lover again. The two looked at each other in tears and tears. Erike had advised her to flee with him, but Li-a was very afraid when he accepted the prophet's responsibility.

Erike was discovered and arrested and the two men fled into the deep forest. Because of fleeing for many days, Li -a was exhausted and could not continue. Behind it was the tribe's screams, and she knew that if Erike was caught, he would be executed for a felony.

Don't let Erike escape the tribe of people who used arrows to shoot sharp arrows at Erike, one of the arrows that flew into Erike's heart. But Lia-a blocked that arrow for him, Erike was in pain, shocked to see Li-a hurt. Li -a told Erike to run away but he still didn't go, he would rather die by her side than want to leave Lebanon. She knew that with his love for her he would not leave her here. Sacrifice is the only thing she can do for him now.

The arrow stabbed too deep into her chest, it robbed the last of her strength. Li-an tries to get up, she pushes the staff down on the ground and raises her hands to the sky. The whole field suddenly turned into a two-meter tall forest that prevented pursuers. From the bushes suddenly millions of flowers bloom, they are spherical formed by other small branches. The white of the flowers is flooded in the field. A strange scene, but the Li-Li silhouette gradually faded away and disappeared before Erike's eyes.

Around him now only the strange flower is the same girl who died for him. Self-agonizing and blaming himself, Erike didn't leave half a step, he stayed here to protect her, the pure white flower like her love for him. Erike died of starvation and thirst after long months.

Their love has created other colors for the white flowers that symbolize their love: Still retain virgin white, intense red, hope green, aqua purple, ... Since then The name of this flower is named Cam Tu Cau. 

This accumulation of hydrangeas is recounted to this day. With a sad story about separation in love. Unlike the grass flower or dandelion flower, hydrangeas with bright colors with round flowers like a small globe. Currently hydrangeas are used a lot to flower with many other flowers such as roses, orchids.
