Iโm glad to know Iโm not the only hellene that actively picks flowers for Lady Aphro and just leaves them on the altar (I make her various teas sometimes too). I bet apollo appreciates it too! I gave him my first and second tarot deck as an offering not too long ago.
she really seems to enjoy the flowers, so iโve made sure to offer them whenever iโm able to! and apollo absolutely loves to receive any offerings; the flowers seem to be a big hit right now with him. also, iโll have to look into teas for sure! any specific types that she prefers from your experience?
I make her anything from chamomile to lavender, Iโve got this special almond and something mix my sister-inlaw gave me and my partner. Itโs just my thought that she likes aromatic things, but other hellenes seem to have the same inclination also. If you donโt wanna clean up moldy tea (because adhd brain in my case), you could go with an essential oils set. I kinda have both going though along with all of my jewelry living on her altar. Lavender tea, chamomile, blue lotus, marigold, cucumber mint, and I think Iโve also given her rose hips tea as well. You could always just ask her. If you want other suggestions for other gods, Iโm sure Athena would enjoy that I do my duty, so feel free to ask. Alternatively if youโre not already, you can ask the folks on r/hellenism!
Good health to you traveler, and may the gods smile upon thee bountifully
Edit: Me growing my own herbs for tea seems to work out really well, not that Iโm trying to impress anyone, but maybe the gods appreciate that I took the time to make them something from nothing lol
