No, it is not.

The asphodel was the flower said to fill the plains of Hades, the Greek underworld. As it was considered the favourite food of the dead, the Ancient Greeks would often plant it near graves. The asphodel was sacred to Persephone, the daughter of Demeter, who was forcefully taken to the underworld by Hades.
