Chinese flowers

At the luxury hotel in Alicante Asia Gardens Hotel & Thai Spa we continue welcoming spring. And we can´t imagine a better way to do it than travelling to China to discover its most representative flowers.

Peony. This is considered the national flower. Its Chinese name is “sho yu”, which means “most beautiful”. It symbolizes happiness, wealth and luck. It is used worldwide as an ornament due to its beauty. It is available in different colours: pink, white, yellow, mottle, red and violet.

Plum blossom. From antiquity, this flower has been one of Chinese painter´s favourite themes. It is a vigour and resistance symbol. This flower resists cold temperatures and blooms in spring. The plum tree symbolizes the regeneration of a new life and growth.

Orchid. It is one of the most popular flowers in China and known for its delicate fragrance. It is considered, especially violet ones, to bring good luck, beauty and love.

Chrysanthemum. This is one of the most traditional Chinese flowers. It favours love and success. Chrysanthemums offer very varied colours, which go from white and yellow ones to pink and orange.
