Details: This poster is of Chrysanthemum, White on Dark Red, by Michael Banks. It shows a photo of a close-up of a white chrysanthemum against a dark red background. It comes on thick stock paper.
Chrysanthemums, often called mums, are a genus (Chrysanthemum) of about 30 species of perennial flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, native to Asia and northeastern Europe. Chrysanthemums were first cultivated in China as a flowering herb as far back as the 15th century BC. The flower was introduced into Japan probably in the 8th century AD, and the Emperor adopted the flower as his official seal. There is a 'Festival of Happiness' in Japan that celebrates the flower. The flower was brought to Europe in the 17th century. Linnaeus named it from the Greek word chrysous, 'golden' (the colour of the original flowers), and -anthemon, meaning flower. Modern chrysanthemums are much more showy than their wild relatives. The flowers occur in various forms, and can be daisy-like, decorative, pompons or buttons. This genus contains many hybrids and thousands of cultivars developed for horticultural purposes. In addition to the traditional yellow, other colors are available, such as white, purple, and red.
