Flowers with "Christmas" in Their Names: How Many Do You Know That You'd Like to Decorate With This Holiday Season?

Flowers with "Christmas" in Their Names＊

Can you think of any flower names that include the word "Christmas"?

Many of you may already know about the Christmas Rose. Even if you haven't heard of it before, you might have at least come across the name.

Besides that, there are several winter flowers related to Christmas that are named "Christmas ○○". Let me introduce them to you ♡

Be sure to check them out the next time you pass by a flower shop.

① Christmas Rose

The Christmas Rose is a flower that belongs to the same Ranunculaceae family as Anemones and Ranunculus, blooming from December to March.

(Despite its name, it surprisingly does not belong to the rose family＊)

In Europe, it is also famous by its name, Helleborus, and features a variety of appearances due to breeding efforts, including petal count, colors, and blooming styles.

The most commonly found in the market is the pure white Christmas Rose.

It has a cute vibe similar to Anemones♡

There are also double-flowered varieties with petal edges tinged in pink.

The flower language of the Christmas Rose is "care" and "remembrance".

Instead of blooming straight up towards the sky, it blooms slightly downward, which gives it a modest appearance♡

Since many Christmas Roses come in muted colors, using them as dried flowers by taking just the petals is also a stylish way to enjoy them♩

② Christmas Bush

Next, let me introduce the Christmas Bush flower.

With its bright red hues, it evokes the coming of winter...! It's a plant native to Australia＊

In Japan, its blooming period is from May to July. You might think, "Wait, isn’t that summer?!" but in countries in the Southern Hemisphere, the seasons are the opposite of Japan. It blooms in Australia from November to January, which is why it has this name.

Each flower of the Christmas Bush is small and delicate, but when gathered in a bouquet, it appears fluffy and voluminous♡

Its flower language is "modesty".

You can use the Christmas Bush to playfully pop out small flowers and greens from bouquets, which looks stylish♡

Since it's red, it doesn’t come off too natural and adds a sharp atmosphere.

Brides having a Christmas wedding should definitely consider this for their bouquet design♡

③ Christmas Bell

There’s also a cute flower called the Christmas Bell♡

Like the Christmas Bush, it’s a native flower from Australia, distinguished by its drooping shape resembling a bell.

The deep red and yellow colors give off a bit of a Southern Hemisphere vibe.

Its flower language is "trust" and "knowing each other well".

Here is a bouquet where three Christmas Bells are added to a bouquet full of Christmas Bushes♡

Since the colors are quite dominant, I think arrangements with just a few added would be chic.

By the way♡

Another flower called Christmas Bell is this one, the Sandersonia.

It’s a staple in bouquets for Korean brides.

While it is a well-known flower, many may not know that its country of origin is South Africa. It is also called Christmas Bell due to its bloom in December in the Southern Hemisphere and its appearance.

Its flower language is "charm"♡

④ Christmas Parade

I discovered a flower with a cheerful name, Christmas Parade. It belongs to the Ericaceae family.

Native to South Africa, it blooms in winter, and like the previously mentioned Christmas Bell, it has a tubular flower shape resembling a straw.

The colors range from milky white to pink, creating a gentle appearance.

It is called Christmas Parade because the way it blooms in a line resembles a parade. It lives up to its name♡

Its flower language is "charity" and "luck".

⑤ Christmas Cactus

Finally, we have the Christmas Cactus ♡. When you think of cacti, you think of cactuses, right?

This plant is also known as the Schlyb cactus, and as the name suggests, it belongs to the cactus family. It blooms with these pink flowers from October to January.

The Christmas Cactus, which grows on rocks and trees in Brazil, blooms chandelier-like when grown in a pot.

Although it faces downward, the amount of green adds a lot of glamour...!

In foreign countries, there are people who cultivate it in such large quantities♡

It has enough presence to be used as lobby flower arrangements in hotels. It feels like a resort...!

Its flower language is "beauty of a moment" and "beautiful view".
