As autumn settles in and the days grow shorter, November celebrates one of the most iconic fall blooms; chrysanthemums. Known for their rich colors, full petals, and variety, mums symbolize joy, friendship, and longevity. They make the the perfect November birth flower.
The Meaning Behind Chrysanthemums
Chrysanthemums have a long, meaningful history across cultures. In Japan, they’re a symbol of happiness and the imperial family, while in the U.S. they represent cheerfulness and gratitude. Their ability to bloom well into late fall makes them a powerful symbol of resilience and optimism, fitting for anyone born in November.
Chrysanthemums Varieties & Colors
From classic button mums to spider and viking varieties, chrysanthemums offer endless design possibilities. Their color palette ranges from warm golds and oranges to deep burgundies and purples, bringing the cozy feeling of fall into any bouquet or centerpiece. Pairing them with seasonal greenery, dahlias, or ranunculus creates texture and dimension that’s ideal for November weddings and events. Chrysanthemums make a wonderful dahlia dupe for when their season ends. In addition to them being a hardy bloom, they are also available all year round!
DIY Uses for Chrysanthemums
For DIY brides and floral enthusiasts, chrysanthemums are both budget-friendly and long-lasting. You could use them in Fall centerpieces for Thanksgiving gatherings or a birthday bouquet for November celebrations. Alternatively, a seasonal arrangement mixed with rustic accents like wheat or eucalyptus make a perfect excuse to use mums!
