The Flower Children

In the 60's and early 70's we witnessed "Flower Power".

We saw the rise of the Flower children.

Put on your thinking caps for this riddle.

The Bible speaks of some flower children long, long before the 1960's.

I am thinking of a flower children movement in the Old Testament...

Two children are in this movement...one was the 'cause' of it...the other the byproduct of it.

Give me the names.

Hi Jamie,

This is from the international standard bible encyclopaedia...

"Mandrakes are the fruit of the Mandragora officinarum, a member of the Solanaceae or potato order, closely allied to the Atropa belladonna.
It is a common plant all over Pal, flourishing particularly in the spring and ripening about the time of wheat harvest. The plant has a rosette of handsome dark leaves, dark purple flowers and orange, tomato-like fruit..."

So to answer your question...mandrakes are a fruit but yes they also have flowers...

I have a feeling you have a couple names in mind...lol
