The orchid, being one of the “Four Gentlemen” flower in Chinese culture, is a loved flower by the Chinese.
It is born in a secluded valley in an uninhabited place, does not have a bright and flashy colour, but has a delicate fragrance, which can express the elegant spirit of not seeking fame and fortune, and keeping oneself in a secluded place.
Taihu stone is used to complement the design, it is a commonly used garden stone in classical Chinese gardens. Due to years of water erosion, it forms many cavities, holes, and passages, resulting in unique and exquisite shapes.
It symbolizes the enduring spirit that withstands the test of time despite being weathered by the elements, standing firm in the world for all eternity.
