In the manga, the flower Lishu put in Ah Duo’s hair is a peony while in the anime, it was a red carnation.
The peony is the flower beloved by the imperial family in Ancient China, so it would be easy for Lishu to get some.
In Japan, red carnations are gifted to mothers (who are still alive and well) on Mother’s Day.
Since The Apothecary Diaries is a Japanese work, the change was probably made to emphasize the mother-daughter relationship between Lishu and Ah Duo to the Japanese viewers.

machete is like a delicate looking white flower, one where the petals turn transparent when it rains. vasco is a marigold for many reasons.
Ooo I like that! It never even crossed my mind to assign marigolds to Vasco, but it makes perfect sense. I had to look it up but the flower that turns transparent in the rain is called skeleton flower, and yeah, I can see how that would fit Machete.
I tend to associate irises, damask roses, and forget-me-nots with Vasco
And red carnations and poppies with Machete

I looked up flower language for this shit, featured flowers are: red rose, wolfsbane, white chrysanthemum, dianthus/carnation and ivy
( i will put a cheat sheet in the tags so you know what meanings im using instead of having to look it all up)
EDIT: this post has been updated with a slightly edited version of the drawing to fix some issues that have been annoying me.
