The Meaning of the Orchid
The orchid symbolises summer, femininity and elegance.
“If you feel in a cheerful mood, paint the orchid, for its leaves seem to fly and soar freely through space, the buds open gracefully and serenely, and everything about that flower expresses happiness”. Chüeh Yin
The orchid, bamboo, plum and chrysanthemum represent the KI, or vital energy, of the four seasons and the four stages of human life, and are considered the ‘Four Noble Ones’.
