Year of
the Dragon

Embracing the luminous glow of a new beginning, the Chinese New Year heralds a time of prosperity, unity, and unbridled hope. The splendid Gladiolus, Peonies, and Orchids don't merely bloom; they narrate a tale of resilience, wealth, and delicate beauty that's deeply embedded in Chinese cultural symbolism.

The Gladiolus, with its sword-like leaves, stands tall, symbolising strength and moral integrity. The opulent Peonies, often referred to as the 'King of Flowers' in Chinese culture, embody wealth and honor, resonating with the festive spirit of abundance.

Finally the Orchids, a perennial epitome of refinement and friendship, harmoniously weave a thread through our campaign, embracing associations of many cherished gatherings and eternal bonds.
