D.W. Griffith and crew experienced a perilous voyage from Miami to the Bahamas during the making of this film, with two washed overboard and no food for the crew for three days.
This was to be D. W. Griffith's third picture for First National Exhibitors Circuit. After they changed the title from Black Beach which was the working title to The Gamest Girl, Griffith bought the film back, reportedly for $400,000, changed the title to The Girl Who Dared, and shot some additional water scenes of Carol Dempster "in a bathing suit performing picturesque and novel feats," according to a news item. Before the film's opening, the title again was changed, this time to The Love Flower.
Several databases misidentify the Richard Barthelmess character's name as Bruce Sanders, when it is actually Jerry Trevethon, and so identified on an intertitle card.
