Hades was deeply in love with his wife, Persephone, and there are two different views on his faithfulness.

In either case, Persephone turned her into the plant we know as mint. There was another nympth he was said to have had an affair with, name Leuce (Leuke). She, however, also came to a metamorphosed end, as she was changed into a white poplar tree and sent to live in the Underworld for all eternity. Most gods were not very monogamous, but Hades was fairly tame compared to others. As far as I know, Minthe and Leuce were the only lovers he took.

What are Hades' symbols for?

They are most often associated with a myth, such as a screech owl was what the gardener of Hades, Ascalaphus, was turned into that bird for telling that Persephone had eaten food from the Underworld by Demeter. A white poplar was sacred for being the metamorphosed form of Leuke, a lover of Hades. Minthe was of that same origion as a lover of Hades who was transformed by Demeter or Persephone into mint. Most symbols are then crude memory cues for the myth involving certain gods and goddesses.
