Cultural concerns

Flowers also navigate the complex realms of cultural appropriation and environmental consciousness. The appropriation of sacred flowers or misinterpretation of their symbolism can disrespect cultural traditions. Additionally, the impact of mass production and consumption on floral ecosystems raises concerns about sustainability.

The white chrysanthemum, revered for its elegance and serene beauty, holds deep-rooted symbolism across diverse cultures, embodying notions of purity, honor, and rebirth. In many parts of the world, this delicate flower carries a profound significance that transcends its aesthetic allure.

In many cultures, the poppy holds dual symbolism, representing both beauty and fragility, resilience and remembrance. The striking red poppy, famously associated with remembrance, emerged as a poignant symbol after World War I. Inspired by the poem «In Flanders Fields» by John McCrae, it honors fallen soldiers and serves as a poignant reminder of their sacrifice.
