Some days verging on Lunar New Year, many kinds of flowers are moved to flowers markets. The markets are colorful and bright with them.
Flowers are the things that can’t lack in Vietnamese home on New Year. Flowers not only decorate home but also have many important meanings. Some of them, their meanings come from their name so I can't explain clearly the reason why they have these meanings.
1) Chrysanthemum
Meaning: An emblem of life, they bring happiness and fortune to every home.
2)Satsuma
Meaning: Bring mammon and good luck to every member in family.
Meaning: An emblem of mammom and wealth.
4) Peach blossom
Meaning: Dismiss evil and bring new vitality, health to each home.
5) Narcissus
Meaning: It is a unworldly kind of flowers. It brings mammom to each family
6)Fig-tree
Meaning: Bring plenty to every family.
7) Trang Nguyen flower (I don't know its name in English)
Meaning: Bring to us success and good luck.
And so on....

Some beautiful flowers! I'd love a satsuma tree. Beautiful and lots of delicious fruit!
All of the flowers look pretty. I think homes will look and smell beautiful at this time of year. What does the word mammon mean?

Thanks Blue. I thought satsumas were sweet! Maybe I have been eaten a different variety of satsuma.
