The most well known genus of bellflowers is Campanula, which is Latin for "little bell". https://www.atozflowers.com/flower/campanula/ There's a variety of Bellflower called Venus Looking Glass.

According to the fandom page, it gets a little weirder. > Another history connected to this flower is a folkloric one. > It is said that fairies planted these blooms to trap people on their path. > This is especially a trap to capture children. While I couldn't find a source for capturing children, there is a related piece of media. https://bellflower.fandom.com/wiki/Bellflower_Siblings_and_Friends > Carnival - The Big Top Carnival is here and the Bellflower Siblings attend it while looking after their little brother Dandelion. However, Roderick and Marmaduke, two bumbling fox criminals, tried to capture them and sell them as slaves. > The Black Sun - A gruesome crime syndicate captures and ties up Poppy, Lilli and Dandelion and holds them hostage for ransom or worse being on sale as slaves. The Black Sun? Maybe the author likes Neal Stephenson.
