She's represented by the hydrangea, meaning pride.

Personality
Megumi has an extremely cool exterior, never losing her composure. She's regarded as a shining example to other idols under Royal Crown Productions, with her mature attitude. However, she's actually quite prideful - just one failure can completely destroy her self-esteem. Despite not exactly being cold, she regards her relationship with her unit as purely professional.

Etymology

 * Hayashi means forest.
 * Megumi likely comes from megumi (恵) meaning favour, benefit.
