Daphne, a patroness of Diana (Goddess of the Hunt), asked to be turned into a laurel tree after Apollo fell in love with her. She did not love him back and wished to remain an unmarried virgin, true only to Diana, for the rest of her life. Apollo pursued her and she finally begged the gods to be turned into the tree. Thus, to show his devotion, Apollo adopted the laurel tree as his sacred tree and wore the laurel leaves on his head as a crown.
