The chrysanthemum comes out in bright colours during cold autumn days when most flowers die. They are beautiful, strong and
tough. So the flower greatly inspired（激励）ancient Chinese poets. 2
3 He once wrote a poem about living as a hermit（隐士）. He showed how he loved the chrysanthemum and used it to show his spirit in the poem.
“I pluck chrysanthemums under the eastern hedge, and gaze afar toward the southern mountains（采菊东篱下，悠然见南山）,” Tao wrote in his poem. Since then, the chrysanthemum has become the symbol of the hermit.
But chrysanthemums are not only found in Chinese poems. 4 The Chongyang Festival falls on the ninth day of the ninth month in the lunar calendar（阴历）. On that day, drinking wine（酒）made from chrysanthemums is a popular tradition. Chrysanthemum tea is also usually seen on Chinese dinner tables. 5
