Description "Her love of plants had inspired her to build a garden,
She spent most of her free time making her dream come true,
As she went around to make sure the plant life were okay,
She was known as The Mother of Plants by Mewnians"


The name "gardenia" comes from a flowering, tropical plant that would grow in the warm, tropical climates. Her dress has the look of a lily pad and her cheek marks are green flowers. Her wand takes form as a "bell wand", which became a common form for her descendants.


Gardenia Butterfly had fascination with nature ever since she was a little girl. When her mother Memphis, the Constructor, had finished building the Butterfly Castle, Gardenia had dreamt she would build a huge garden in the courtyard once she turned queen. When she inherited her wand at 14, Gardenia had learned spells that were related to plants and would use them for combat or healing purposes. Her strong connection to nature had caused her to go around, taking care of the plant life (even considered them as her "children") most of her time, where Mewnians would call her The Mother of Plants.

During her reign, the corn fields were suffering from growth loss when the queen had noticed red blotches on the crop that caused it to decrease its dwarf size. Mewmans were suffering from hunger and were not able to consume their favorite crop, causing a few people to die from hunger. Unhappy to see her people suffering, Gardenia had made a spell to where she cured all the corn field, making them well-nourished and return back to their natural growth. The queen had called this event The Maize Dwarf Plague.


Gardenia had married her husband Arthur Atlantica in 99 a.M. She gave birth to Festivia, the Fun in 100 a.M, Saturnalia Butterfly-Forest in 103 a.M, Dogwood Butterfly in 104 a.M, Woodstock Butterfly-Jewel in 106 a.M, and Fantasia Butterfly in 108 a.M, one year shy from the plague even begun.


Note: Soupina the Strange considers Gardenia to be one of her favorite queens of all time.


___

The dress was an inspiration from Princess Tiana's lily pad dress. Originally, Gardenia was going to have a shade of pinks, but I changed it because I felt like green would suit her better. Her cheek marks were also originally medium pink, but I changed it to green. The color combination (red hair and green outfit) is also an inspiration from Poison Ivy, because she is one of my favorite characters in DC Comics <3

I had lost my muse for at least 3 whole weeks due to my stress from my job and such, but I regained inspiration again

Thongchan In reply to franci07 [2018-04-15 02:14:39 +0000 UTC]

Oh you mean which queens that had their inspirations from??

Gardenia= Poison Ivy (red hair), Princess Tiana from The Princess and the Frog (the lily pad dress)
Cometia= Rosalina and Estelaria (the sparkle hair wise)
Hylia= Hylia (goddess) from LoZ (and somewhat Helia, the light power)
Filia= The Queen of Hearts (She might be next to have a tapestry)
Minerva= Xena the Warrior Princess

I have more queens whom might be based off of from my favorite characters or be a representation of me (example: Plutonia the Paranoid), but that's another story to tell for another time as soon as I finish their tapestries.

Oh yes, her flower cheek marks! They were originally going to be pink, as well as her hair, but I didn't like the outcome so my friend had suggested me a red and green color scheme, to which I love since she sorta reminds me of Poison Ivy from DC Comics

BessyLeonzo In reply to Thongchan [2018-04-02 04:24:13 +0000 UTC]

Maybe after so many bones being lost it ended up being a genetic defect for her


Or she had surgery on her thumb and made it longer

Thongchan In reply to BessyLeonzo [2018-04-02 04:26:44 +0000 UTC]

Lol I guess broken bones would be the main thing lmao

I do not know if they would perform good surgery back then before Soupina and House Heart would be born. House Heart are known for medical-related stuff.~

Yasss

Originally, I was going to give her shades of pink with red tips, but I didn't like the outcome so I changed it to more shades of green, as well as her cheek marks. I been thinking of changing the color of her marks for not too long and most of the cheek marks of the queens were in shades of reds, pinks, and purples x3

Hehe good choice since i notice there too many pink hehe by the way did you know that Venus is gonna have a uncle

Thongchan In reply to LOVESVTFOE [2018-03-31 08:05:31 +0000 UTC]

Yes lol

Oh yes, I really do know that and I was stoked. After watching that episode, I had some ideas where Venus would go to Earth dimension to spend time with her uncle, since he might be a college student around that time. But she would still be confused as to why her paternal grandparents would name him Marco Jr lol

They look very nice! ^.^
