Starting off with the most basic CNY fruit, oranges are very popular, and one would see potted plants with miniature oranges blossoming. The orange looks like the sun and is aligned with the yang (positive) principle, hence being a super auspicious symbol of abundance and happiness.

2. Pomelos

Whether your pomelo is green or yellow, it is still an important fruit. Pomelos are known to bring good luck to the household. Also, it is common practice to decorate the home with a single or a pair of pomelos. A pair would be better because as the saying goes - 'all good things come in twos'. This fruit is also symbolic of family unity!

3. Grapes, Plums, Jujube and Kumquats

These fruits symbolise good luck, wealth, fortune, gold, prosperity and fertility. These serve as holy offerings in Buddhist temples and are also used in cooking, not to mention gifting among relatives.

4. Orchids

Moving on to the flowers! Orchids are delicate, beautiful and elegant flowers. In China, they have long been considered to be symbolic of 'many children' or fertility and abundance. Orchids also signify refinement, luxury and innocence. These flowers make for valuable gifts in this season.

5. Peach Blossoms

Peach blossoms are customarily placed in beautiful and valuable vases. The peach fruit represents longevity and that makes the fruit and its flowers very important to the Chinese. To add on, peach blossom symbolises romance, prosperity, and growth.
