Cosmos Blossoming in Taiyuan Botanical Garden

Autumn is in full swing in Taiyuan, and in the Sophora Fragrance Garden of Taiyuan Botanical Garden, cosmos flowers are blooming gracefully. These plant sprites, known as "autumn heroes," stand 1 to 2 meters tall, with spindle-shaped roots, hairless or slightly soft-haired stems, linear leaf lobes, and solitary flower heads 3 to 6 centimeters in diameter. The ligulate flowers come in purplish-red, pink, or white. Although their blooming period is from June to August, even in late autumn, their passionate yet quiet presence remains. The flower language of cosmos is to cherish the people before you, symbolizing the appreciation of the present moment and human connections. The white variety adds a sense of purity. They do not compete with spring flowers or summer lotuses but bloom in late autumn, bringing a unique surprise. In some cultures, cosmos are a great choice for decoration and ceremonial occasions, with their colorful flowers adding beauty and harmony to social events. Come to Taiyuan Botanical Garden and immerse yourself in this sea of cosmos flowers to experience the romance and tranquility unique to autumn, feeling the gentleness and gifts of nature. We are waiting for the wind, and for you, at Taiyuan Botanical Garden.
