Although there are many Halloween decorations here, it is more beautiful to see flowers... everything is so beautiful and colourful, I could imagine the scent of chrysanthemums, a flower that I love! It reminds me of the garden I used to have.
That sun lighting up everything around it, people enjoying themselves and the scent, the scent of flowers! They remind me of my grandmother. Thank you!
Unfortunately the scent was missing. I don't know why, maybe these flowers are a different type, but I remember when I was a kid, chrysanthemums had a stronger scent. Now you have to go closer to the flowers to feel it. Some don't like it as they say it's the flower of the dead, which is stupid.
I'm glad you like it and that it reminds you of your grandmother. Nice to be taken back to nice memories.
I had them in my house and the scent was delicious. If some say they are associated with death, like calla lilies and other flowers... they are just flowers. And they are beautiful!

I think the same. Just as funeral wreath are made of pine branches and no one is associating Christmas trees with death, why should we associate these flowers with death? Stupid. I have a nice bouquet of chrysanthemums on my desk as we speak 😎
