In the years after the flower was picked, the spot where the flower grows became a sacred and forbidden site, with a small pedestal in its place and large, indestructible thorn-like rocks surrounding it.
The golden flower has been considered as the most powerful object in 'the Seven Kingdoms' according to Corona's history. Even though Mother Gothel had hidden the flower, other people knew of its existence, suggesting that this flower was not the first of its kind. It appears that when the song is sung, the flower releases pollen which is breathed in. She used it to keep herself young for hundreds of years, and all she had to do was sing a special song. One day, Mother Gothel discovered the flower and chose to hoard its healing power for herself. It had the ability to heal any sickness or injuries, even mortal wounds, as demonstrated by Rapunzel, delay aging, as demonstrated by Gothel, though that ability requires constant use of the life/youth-sustaining ability. This flower has the ability to heal and supply youth to people of Corona, with this having a major link to Rapunzel's hair and the black rocks in the television series.Ī long time ago, a single drop of sunlight fell from the heavens, and from this single drop of sun grew the golden flower.
