The Exhibit MUM.
A Hagoromo Intermediate Incurve Chrysanthemum.
Etymological Meaning of the Chrysanthemum Flower
It’s surprisingly easy to remember the scientific name for this flower because it’s Chrysanthemum, the same as the common name for gardening varieties.
However, the exhibition varieties used by florists and arrangers were divided into their own genus known as Dendranthema.
The mums in your yard are likely part of the Chrysanthemum group, while the bouquet sent by the florist contains all or mostly Dendranthema flowers.
Aside from small Latin differences, all Chrysanthemums share a common Greek source for their name.
The words Chrysos, meaning gold, and Anthemon, meaning flower, were combined to reflect the beauty and value of this blossom.
This name carries over the Chinese and Japanese translations, which literally mean gold flower or blossom as well.
From the same plant, it is fascinating to see the differences.
Like people in one family, LOL.
Have a super day and thank you for your ever welcome comments and visit, M, (*_*)
