The chrysanthemum, together with the plum blossom, the orchid and the bamboo, is one of the ˇ°Four Gentlemenˇ± of China. It is said that the chrysanthemum has been favored by Tao Qian, an influential Chinese poet who lived in the middle of the Six Dynasties period (c. 220-589 CE). The chrysanthemum has been considered as The Flower of Autumn in China, as well as a symbol of nobility. I favor the flowers beauty and its symbolic meaning %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4731581/
