Forget-me-nut

The common name, Forget Me Not, comes from a German legend about a knight who died trying to get the flowers for his lover and called out with his last breath, “Forget me not!”. However, the Greek name for the same flower, Myosotis, means mouse's ear because the oval, furry leaves resemble a mouse's ear.

Either way, gold (in this case 24 carat gold leaf) symbolises abundance and prosperity, as do nuts. They could be used as decoration, for barter in a tight spot or just to remind someone of you - as totally perfect, or totally nuts.
