Comment on MUM’S THE WORD FOR THIS FLOWER SHOW by La Pouyette - Karin

Although the chrysanthemums are not one of my absolute favorite flowers in general – I love the dark brownish-red ones. For me they “läuten den Winter ein” . I also have the kind of graveyard feeling with them, but probably because they are nearly the only flowering plants in late autumn, and are used when in pots to decorate the graves in November, well, in Germany and France for example.
And the white ones as symbols of death like white arums and lillies – as white is the color of innocence we may became innocent again……in our second life
Very interesting post, dear Judith. And your selection is simply wonderful!
