Professor Snape "greeted" Harry to his classroom with the words, "Potter! What would I get if I added powdered root of asphdel to an infusion of wormwood?" Asphodel is a type of lily, and in the "flower language" of Victorian England it meant, "my regrets follow you to the grave," while wormwood signified bitter sorrow -- thus what Snape said was something along the lines of "I bitterly regret the death of Lily (your mother)."
Noooot quite. I mean, yes, but not quite. In case you were curious, one is "I deeply regret", the other is a _type of lily_ commonly used to express grief over the loss of a young woman. I find it necessary to explain that because it's one of those lucky coincidences that enriches the text, that it just so happens that a lily, symbol of maidens, was used exclusively for mourning. It is pretty cool. In most of the languages of flowers, (victorian is only one of them), combining certain flowers in their bouquets is a way of expressing more comolex ideas and emotions. For example, a red rose is a symbol of passionate love and devotion, of sensuality. A yellow rose represents hapiness, trust in the future, but also forgiveness and by extention, an apology. Therefore, a bouquet of red and yellow roses is usually given to ask forgiveness from your lover. One step extra, you could make a case for "I'm sorry I was untrue". Of course, given how recent that interpretation is, (first time I saw it was when Tumblr was already stablished as a popular site), it may or may not have been a coincidence. But even then, as I said before, just because something was achieved with no intention does not strip it from it's worth. Serindipity only has value because you were not looking for it. And that's my paragraphs long comment regarding flowers on a UA-cam video. Hooray!
The first thing Snape asks Harry is “Potter! What would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?” According to Victorian Flower Language, asphodel is a type of lily meaning ‘My regrets follow you to the grave’ and wormwood means ‘absence’ and also typically symbolised bitter sorrow. If you combined that, it meant ‘I bitterly regret Lily’s death’.
Cherry, I feel soo bad about those items got broken... They are actually my favorite. I would like you to make a video on unboxing the deluminator of dumbledore from Nobel collection
I'm so surprised that I liked everything in the box. I usually only like a few things in subscription boxes, but this one was superb! My favorite was either the headache stick or quill
I'm from Argentina so my favorite sweet it's an "alfajor". It's like a macaron but with completely different ingredients, they're made of two or three cookies, covered in chocolate united by "dulce de leche" (a kind of nutella but it's made with milk and sugar, a national sweet. Reeeeeally tasty but if you eat to much you'll feel kind of sick of it's sweetness). Love you, Cherry!
Asphodel is a type of lily and means 'remembered beyond the tomb' or 'my regrets follow you to the grave,' while wormwood is often associated with regret or bitterness.
You need to read the fanfiction I read once which convinced me to like Umbridge. It was AU of course but it was still awesome! BTW your hair at the start was so perfect!
amazing box, such a shame the memory vial and Mug were broken I love the mead bottle, we actually got a bottle of mead in this months cauldron crate box and it was so so beautiful and was full of liquid soap! super clever! love your unboxings
also i think the headache stick was clever, and the Snape Mug would have been a favorite of my own as well as that quill, thankfully we can say it is an imitation and not the real one which the use of was supposed to have been illegal anyways lol.
I just looooove the artworks in these boxes you get. it is all so incredibly pretty. I have so many artworks from al kinds of series in my home itds driving my boyfriend nuts. It's probably a good thing I cant buy these artworks loose.... xD
Great box!!! When you shook the memorial vial box before opening it, I was saying in my head “nooo be careful that might be fragile!” And then it was broken when you opened it and I was like “😱 did she just break it?” But then the mug was broken too, so it’s obvious that your owl dropped the whole box on his way to you! 🦉💥 Hope you get them replaced! Awesome box all around!
9 mins!!, I was rather astounded to see your wand,as I remeber it was not any character's wand.then you said it's been made.i love wands 😍😍.keep collecting!!
I'm going Florida next August (if the worlds normal again) and we are going to Universal,and I honestly think im going to cry when I see it even though ive been to the studio tour
Instead of a headmaster shelf u should make a professor shelf if u haven’t already and u inspired me to start my own channel where I invoiced things and collect for Harry Potter
I liked the infusion of wormwood potion best the green circular colours so dainty and also the Severus snape mug looked like it would have been really nice I love their quotes. They need to do a Ginny, Neville and Luna themes box perhaps stationary eg bookmarks etc. Least favourite was the artwork
i love all your videos, but these unboxing videos reminded me why I love harry potter (making my own shelves!!) and these are helping me get through quarantine so much easier
It would be fun to kinsugi that broken mug. I found a method of faux food-safe kinsugi using resin that I want to try out eventually. It's too bad you had so many things break.
Richard Harris believed Fawkes was real the first time he was in the Headmasters office during filming of Book One! The memory vial should go on the Horcrux shelf! Love your videos because they are so upbeat. GG n your running.
I think Errol was carrying your package, Cherry.
I think so too!
🤭
Yes obviously since the stuff is broken
Or maybe Pigwidgeon, he is so small, he might have dropped it.
Yessssss so true!

Exactly! I was about to say the same thing.
😟 awww snape.. I didn't know this
Oh my god, how did u do that?
Woah! :0
@@lazyhomebody1356 Me too. :)
Powdered root of aphsodel and an infusion of wormwood means, in the victorian language of flowers, 'I deeply regret Lily's death'
Wonderful, now I'm emotional. Thank you for that bit of info
I'm nearly crying thanks for that

Are they drinks or just liquid in a bottle?
Everyone remembers the password ‘Sherbet Lemon’ but I also love ‘Cockroach Clusters’ because Harry didn’t really mean it when he said it.
Yes, yes.
I just read that part today!!!!
Ye lol
Which book
Cherry holding the quill: "I´m not going to lie" :D
Cherry's emotional switch when opening the umbridge box is such a mood honestly
" O this looks really fragile"
10 Seconds before - **Shakes white box**
And does it twice c😂
It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live, remember that.
Nymphadora Tonks
Yes because happiness can always be found even in the darkest of times if one only remembers to turn on the light 💡
R u saying that this is a dream
Tybbf
we have the same pfp LOL ❤️

I received mine with a broken mug as well, but my memory vial was intact...great box!
the idea to make the theme of the box is one person, is realy cool. i love the dumbledor theme
Sense you’ve got so many potions and potion ingredients, you should make a potions cabinet.
Cherry, you just make me smile! Thanks for being you. ❤️
"Blimey!"
-Cherry Wallis, 2020.
I think your Ron has come out Cherry 😂
I was expecting Rons “Bloody hell!”
Lol
Cherry, I feel soo bad about those items got broken... They are actually my favorite. I would like you to make a video on unboxing the deluminator of dumbledore from Nobel collection
Yes that would be a wonderful video. I would also love to see a Wand Collection 2020 video.
@Madison Brownlol. yeah errol definitely delivered her package.
That Dolores Umbridge's black quill reaction was priceless!
Yes Errol definitely delivered the package
I'm so surprised that I liked everything in the box. I usually only like a few things in subscription boxes, but this one was superb!

Dios el alfajor es lo mejor que le pasó al mundo después del dulce de leche
it was the first dumbledore who thought Fawkes was real, the actor Richard Harris.
"Tell me, What would I get, if I added *powdered root of asphodel* to an *infusion of wormwood* !"
I deeply regret Lily's death
I love the candle color
the ones who love us never leave us, cherry
The WT could also mean the West Tower where the Headmaster's office is
That so true big brain🧠🧠
Cola cubes for sure!! Looking lovely as usual xx
Who else loves cherry video’s. And she was the first Harry potters UA-cam’s you watched? 🤔😂😝
Sherbet lemon 🍋
Yup
Same
I am obsessed with Harry Potter and love watching these BTW I love your boxes the most out of all of the ones you show
Hi cherry you’ve helped me a lot since I lost my dog a couple days ago I just want to let you know I love you
I'm sorry for your loss x
Enut Peanut thank you
Abigail S thank you
15:44 when Harry, Ron, and Hermione are chilling happily in the corridors and Umbridge waltz into the scene with a ‘hem hem.’
I love your time Turner necklace!!😎
You don’t know how much I love your videos.
i loooove the quill
The Snape/Lily thing with the Asphodel meant "I bitterly regret Lily's death."
Asphodel is a type of lily and means 'remembered beyond the tomb' or 'my regrets follow you to the grave,' while wormwood is often associated with regret or bitterness.
Liked the video before I’ve even seen it! Love you Cherry💕
That so funny. Lilly something to do with not forgetting... which you can't remember. Bless you
I am interested in these boxes but cant locate an actual price list for them on their website. Are they within the UK please?
Honestly, I want cherry’s wand at the beginning of the video. I’m in love with it. I think my favorite items are snape’s potions.
Im glad to see Cherry is looking happy again 😊
your knowledge of harry potter always amazes me! I love it
I think the candle was an Umbridge item too, because she was always drinking tea.
You need to read the fanfiction I read once which convinced me to like Umbridge. It was AU of course but it was still awesome!
BTW your hair at the start was so perfect!
And tomorrow it's the day when Cedric died and Voldemort returned
You look amazing Cherry
amazing box, such a shame the memory vial and Mug were broken I love the mead bottle, we actually got a bottle of mead in this months cauldron crate box and it was so so beautiful and was full of liquid soap! super clever! love your unboxings
also i think the headache stick was clever, and the Snape Mug would have been a favorite of my own as well as that quill, thankfully we can say it is an imitation and not the real one which the use of was supposed to have been illegal anyways lol.
Little did she know she was making everyones quarrenteen better
The Dumbledore’s office pin & the key are great! 🔑 x
It's sad how things were broken, but that's really amazing that The Wizarding Trunk does replace them.
I just want to say thank you. Your videos are such a nice break from the real world ❤️
Awesome !! I'm a huge fan of Albus Dumbledore... I shared this video to a friend of mine who is a huge fan of Albus Dumbledore...she loved it too!!
I just looooove the artworks in these boxes you get. it is all so incredibly pretty. I have so many artworks from al kinds of series in my home itds driving my boyfriend nuts. It's probably a good thing I cant buy these artworks loose.... xD

I'm going Florida next August (if the worlds normal again) and we are going to Universal,and I honestly think im going to cry when I see it even though ive been to the studio tour
This was one of the best boxes I have gotten. I use the headache stick as Chapstick!
Love your videos and you Cherry 🍒❤ and how else loved the wand Cherry was holding
A great box I especially liked the key. I agree the memory vial would have been my favorite if it hadn't been broken.
I’m so jealous of Cherrys Harry collection! I love it so much!!💜💜
I would love to see how you decorate your new treasures in your shelf, if you keep them.
Love the hair cherry
Lemon is definitely one of my favorite
I always love these subscription box unboxings. They are really fun to watch❤❤
I love all them i would put all of them on my shelf if i had room and frame the watercolor pic
Just refreshed and saw this video, so happy
I love sherbet lemons too. I also love fizzers.
The oak matured mead is actually a bath product!
It’s an empty bottle haha. I think another box made it a bath product.
love your videos Cherry they make me so happy! 😊💜
So excited for the unboxing, wizarding trunk has been doing some amazing ones! Also love Cherry been such a fan for a while :)
Hi Cherry! I love you and your videos sooooo much!!! You have brought me so much joy in this quarantine!
I find it nice that it had unbridgeable as we all forget she was a head mistress
Instead of a headmaster shelf u should make a professor shelf if u haven’t already and u inspired me to start my own channel where I invoiced things and collect for Harry Potter
Love cameraman Chris! 🥰 Nice moments through!
That was a great box. Too bad a couple were broken. Wonder how many others were broken.
Favorite item: the HM key and the print would be my favorites.
To me, this is the best box I’ve ever seen! Loved every item!😍✨
This box was beautiful! Great review Cherry! Still can't get enough of your bookshelfs!
Cherry: shakes box vigorously, opens box the glass is broken.
Me: what an amazement
I liked the infusion of wormwood potion best the green circular colours so dainty and also the Severus snape mug looked like it would have been really nice I love their quotes. They need to do a Ginny, Neville and Luna themes box perhaps stationary eg bookmarks etc. Least favourite was the artwork
i love all your videos, but these unboxing videos reminded me why I love harry potter (making my own shelves!!) and these are helping me get through quarantine so much easier
Can we just appreciate how stunning Cherry's makeup looks! ❤️
Lusm Cherry! 🍒❤️
I hate we only got one boxed Dumbledore thing.
the sherbet looks so good
The Darkest Dawn was a cracking film. Just putting it out there.
Wow that's awesome video and especially when you open the box 😁
That box was amazing though even though it had broken items!
Did you know that Dumbledore is a Slytherin
It was Sir Richard Harris, who thought Fawkes was a real bird, because he looked so real.
Ok so I have been watching Cherry for like 3 or 4 years ‼️
I love watching your hauls so much :) they always make my day. also, your shirt is giving me Beauxbatons vibes with the frilly sleeves :)
im early and i already can tell that this video is going to be amazing
Love your new wand💙😍
Wow what a well thought out box! It really looked like A LOT of effort was put into it 👏🏻
It would be fun to kinsugi that broken mug. I found a method of faux food-safe kinsugi using resin that I want to try out eventually. It's too bad you had so many things break.
When Cherry was saying “But I don’t want to eat on camera” my mind erupted and thought Cherry you are doing food reviews
Yesss! So many unboxings recently!
I love how she smelled on the candle and analysed it with so much Love for the smell and McGonnagal.. ❤️❤️😱😁
I NEED THAT WAND !
The thing snape says in the first movie is supposed to mean I will never forget you lily even to the grave or something like that
Richard Harris believed Fawkes was real the first time he was in the Headmasters office during filming of Book One! The memory vial should go on the Horcrux shelf! Love your videos because they are so upbeat. GG n your running.
I just love your videos
I am obsessed with your wand!! I love the blue part 😍😍 I love your content 😊😊
