Colors of fall – bouquets with chrysanthemums
Bouquets of chrysanthemums - the meaning of flowers, the history of chrysanthemums from Ancient China and Japan to the present day.
People have cultivated flowers for a long time. We build greenhouses so we can grow flowers all year long. Selectionists have created new kinds of flowers that can bloom more often than usual. However, certain flowers even though they are available all year are associated with a certain season. Tulips are spring flowers, and chrysanthemums are flowers of fall.
Chrysanthemums in gardens start to bloom in august, but there are early kinds that start blooming in the middle of July, and yet chrysanthemums never naturally bloom after the middle of September.
We can deliver bouquets of chrysanthemums in various countries and cities. You can find a wide variety of single-flower arrangements with just the mums or more complex arrangements made with several types of flowers.

The first chrysanthemums are thought to be bred in China many centuries ago. The first written mention of a chrysanthemum as a decorative flower can be found in a work of great ancient philosopher, Confucius. The flowers were used as a part of Chinese ornaments, porcelain, and even old coins. Chrysanthemum means wisdom and longevity in Chinese tradition.
In Japan chrysanthemums became popular in IV century A.D. The Japanese believe the chrysanthemums are rays of sun growing from the ground. The sun is inseparable from the flower. Both words sound the same in Japanese, “Kiku”, and are presented by the same hieroglyph.
Kiku stands for noble simplicity, royalty, erudition, immortality, dignity, and bravery.
Chrysanthemums are sacred in Japan, they can be found in official emblems. The Japanese believe that it is a magic flower that can extend life. And they call the most beautiful girls “o-kiku-san” referring to both a chrysanthemum and the sun.
