FACTS & FIGURES
The Chrysanthemum (菊花: Ju Hua) was first cultivated in China as a flowering herb and is described in writings as early as the 15th Century B.C. Its ornamental and medicinal values have long made it one of the most favorite flowers of the Chinese People. As a herb, it was believed to have the power of life. Legend has it that the boiled roots were used as a headache remedy; young sprouts and petals were eaten in salads; and leaves were brewed for a festive drink. The ancient Chinese name for chrysanthemum is “Chu.” The Chinese city of Chu-Hsien (which means Chrysanthemum City) was so named to honor the flower.
