Noble flowers: The four noble plants of the ancient Chinese were the Chrysanthemum, the Orchid, the bamboo, and the plum, and therefore only the upper class Chinese were permitted to grow them in their gardens.
Superstition and the Aster:The most popular of the 600 different species of the Aster is the Monte Carlo. People long ago thought they could drive away serpents with the odor it produced when they burned it. Personal attention: The florist you pick should give the right amount of personal attention to your needs. Choose a florist who will get to know you, keep track of your floral preferences and send reminders of upcoming special occasions.
