The chrysanthemum, juhua, is a symbol of longevity and an important flower. It is the symbol of autumn and the flower of the ninth moon. It is also believed to have health-giving properties, and even today chrysanthemum tea is believed to lower blood pressure and cholesterol. Chrysanthemum-shaped pieces were a particular favourite of the Yongzheng and Qianlong Emperors.
