Fruit, flowers, ritual wood, literary landscapes, and compound designs do not form one interchangeable symbolic code.<\/p><ul><li><strong>Peach fruit (\u6843\u679c, t\u00e1ogu\u01d2):<\/strong> longevity and wishes for a long life, especially in birthday art shaped by Xiwangmu (\u897f\u738b\u6bcd, X\u012bw\u00e1ngm\u01d4).<\/li><li><strong>Peach blossom (\u6843\u82b1, t\u00e1ohu\u0101):<\/strong> spring, youth, and\u2014in an appropriate poetic or wedding context\u2014marriage or romantic feeling.<\/li><li><strong>Peach Blossom Spring (\u6843\u82b1\u6e90, T\u00e1ohu\u0101 Yu\u00e1n):<\/strong> Tao Yuanming&#8217;s hidden, peaceful community and the ideal of withdrawal from a troubled world.<\/li><li><strong>Peachwood and peachwood charms (\u6843\u7b26, t\u00e1of\u00fa):<\/strong> traditional door rituals in which peachwood was believed to repel harmful forces.<\/li><li><strong>Compound motifs:<\/strong> peaches with bats, Shoulao, Magu, longevity characters, or other emblems create specific birthday wishes.<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"p1\">Family continuity is a secondary reading in some marriage imagery, not a universal peach meaning. All of these are cultural metaphors, literary ideas, ritual beliefs, or artistic wishes. A peach image cannot lengthen life, attract a partner, improve fertility, repel danger, or change fortune.<\/p><div id=\"gtx-trans\" style=\"position: absolute; left: 250px; top: -4.75347px;\"><div class=\"gtx-trans-icon\">\u00a0<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-06679af e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"06679af\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2af274a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2af274a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"p1\">A nineteenth-century jadeite peach (\u6843, t\u00e1o)-shaped cup in the Metropolitan Museum of Art carries a tiny bat among its branches. Together they make a birthday image of longevity and blessing. Zhang Hong&#8217;s 1638 handscroll <em>Peach Blossom Spring<\/em> (\u6843\u82b1\u6e90, T\u00e1ohu\u0101 Yu\u00e1n), named for peach blossom (\u6843\u82b1, t\u00e1ohu\u0101), instead follows Tao Yuanming&#8217;s story of a hidden community beyond a flowering grove. Its subject is withdrawal from disorder, not long life or romance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The shared plant does not produce a shared meaning. In Chinese art, peach fruit (\u6843\u679c, t\u00e1ogu\u01d2), peach blossom (\u6843\u82b1, t\u00e1ohu\u0101), wood, and grove belong to different traditions. Date, medium, inscription, narrative, and companion motifs decide which reading fits. This contextual method also governs the wider system of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/chinese-symbols-and-meanings\/\">Chinese symbols and meanings<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Peach Fruit, Peach Blossom, Peach Wood, and Peach Blossom Spring: What Is the Difference?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">English \u201cpeach\u201d can conceal several Chinese categories. The botanical plant is <em>Prunus persica<\/em>. Kew treats it as an accepted species and describes its native range as a cultigen from north-central China.<sup>[1]<\/sup> Cultural interpretation, however, begins with the represented part or story rather than taxonomy alone.<\/p>\n<div style=\"overflow-x:auto; max-width:100%; max-height:800px;\">\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Subject<\/th>\n<th>Recognition clues<\/th>\n<th>Leading meaning<\/th>\n<th>Do not assume<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Peach fruit<\/td>\n<td>Ripe fruit; birthday vessel; immortals, bats, or longevity characters<\/td>\n<td>Longevity or immortality imagery<\/td>\n<td>Romance or marriage<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Peach blossom<\/td>\n<td>Flowering branch, spring landscape, wedding poem or inscription<\/td>\n<td>Spring and youth; marriage or love only with supporting context<\/td>\n<td>Every blossom means peach-blossom luck (\u6843\u82b1\u8fd0, t\u00e1ohu\u0101 y\u00f9n)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Peach tree or grove<\/td>\n<td>Whole trees or a flowering grove in landscape painting<\/td>\n<td>Spring scenery or a named narrative setting<\/td>\n<td>Every grove is Peach Blossom Spring<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Peachwood or taofu<\/td>\n<td>Door plaque, carved board, door-god name, New Year ritual context<\/td>\n<td>Historical apotropaic belief at the doorway<\/td>\n<td>Modern peachwood jewelry provides protection<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Peach Blossom Spring<\/td>\n<td>Fisherman, boat, stream, cave, isolated village, or a \u201cPeach Spring\u201d title<\/td>\n<td>A hidden ideal community and withdrawal from disorder<\/td>\n<td>A romantic paradise<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Peachbloom glaze<\/td>\n<td>Mottled red Qing ceramic glaze without fruit or flowers<\/td>\n<td>A ceramic color and technique<\/td>\n<td>Peach symbolism merely because of the English name<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">The table is a diagnostic guide, not a replacement for an object record. Museum titles, inscriptions, and documented use should outrank visual guessing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Two objects can also look \u201cpeach-like\u201d for entirely different reasons. A vessel may copy the fruit&#8217;s rounded form, a painter may record a flowering branch, and a potter may use a mottled red glaze later called peachbloom in English. Only the first two actually depict peach material, and even they do not share one message. This negative test improves identification: before assigning a symbolic meaning, ask whether the object represents a plant at all, whether the name is modern or historical, and whether an inscription or museum record connects the form to a recognized story or occasion.<\/p>\n\n<h2>How Peach Symbolism Developed Across Chinese History<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Peach meanings accumulated rather than replacing one another. Early marriage poetry, ritual beliefs about wood, immortality mythology, literary utopia, and later birthday decoration developed on different tracks.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Early Peach Blossoms, Marriage Poetry, and Ritual Wood<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">The <em>Book of Poetry<\/em> song <em>Tao Yao<\/em> is the central early text for peach blossom and marriage. It begins with a young, brilliantly flowering peach and turns toward a bride joining a household: \u201cThe peach tree beams so red; how brilliant are its flowers.\u201d Later stanzas move from blossoms to abundant fruit and luxuriant leaves, repeatedly wishing that the bride will fit harmoniously within her home.<sup>[2]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The poem supports a marriage and household reading, not the modern idea that any blossom predicts romantic luck. Peachwood followed another path: early and medieval traditions associated it with rites intended to restrain harmful spirits, while later New Year practice placed inscribed taofu at doors. This history does not transfer to flowers or fruit.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Xiwangmu and the Peaches of Immortality<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">In Han and later religious and mythic imagery, Xiwangmu (\u897f\u738b\u6bcd, X\u012bw\u00e1ngm\u01d4), the Queen Mother of the West, became closely connected with the Peaches of Immortality (\u87e0\u6843, p\u00e1nt\u00e1o). The divine fruit in her distant realm promised immortality within myth. Artists later depicted her orchard, banquets, immortals carrying peaches, and human seekers hoping to share the fruit&#8217;s power.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Texts and pictures do not preserve one uniform ripening schedule. Popular retellings often say three thousand years, but versions vary. As the motif moved into secular birthday art, immortality became a human wish for longevity. A cup, vase, embroidery, or painting translated myth into ceremonial good wishes.<sup>[3]<\/sup> <\/p>\n\n<h3>Tao Yuanming and the Peach Blossom Spring<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Tao Yuanming&#8217;s fifth-century <em>Record of Peach Blossom Spring<\/em> tells of a fisherman who follows a stream through a flowering grove, passes a narrow opening, and finds an isolated farming community. Its people say their ancestors escaped the upheaval of the Qin period and thereafter lost contact with outside dynasties. The fisherman leaves, marks the route, and cannot find the settlement again.<sup>[4]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Peach trees are the threshold, not a romantic subject. The failed return makes the peaceful ideal unreachable. Zhang Hong&#8217;s 1638 handscroll translates this literary geography into mountains, water, paths, figures, and a secluded village.<sup>[5]<\/sup> It is too simple to label every such image a Daoist immortal realm, and wrong to call the story a love affair.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Ming\u2013Qing Birthday Art and Auspicious Decoration<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">During the Ming and Qing periods, peach fruit became especially visible on court and domestic birthday objects. Painters and artisans combined it with bats, the Star God of Longevity, Magu, cranes, deer, lingzhi, rocks, and longevity characters. Each companion narrowed the message, producing wishes for long life, blessings, or an auspicious birthday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Naturalistic peach-blossom painting and Peach Blossom Spring landscapes continued at the same time. This coexistence matters: \u201cQing peach\u201d is not a single symbolic category. A flowering branch on an album leaf may mark spring; a nine-peach vase may serve a longevity context; a handscroll may narrate Tao Yuanming. Period alone never settles the meaning.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Why Does the Peach Fruit Symbolize Longevity and Immortality?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">The longevity association proceeds through three stages. First, myth gives the divine peach the power to confer immortality. Second, Xiwangmu&#8217;s orchard and gatherings turn the fruit into a recognizable narrative attribute. Third, birthday art adapts that impossible divine immortality into a human wish for a long, healthy life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">That distinction separates <em>immortality<\/em> from <em>longevity<\/em>. Immortality belongs inside stories of deities and transcendents. Longevity is the ceremonial wish expressed by a gift or image. A longevity peach (\u5bff\u6843, sh\u00f2ut\u00e1o)\u2014whether a depicted fruit, peach-shaped object, or celebratory food\u2014is a cultural sign of the wish, not a mechanism for achieving it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Several figures identify the setting:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Xiwangmu:<\/strong> appears as the divine owner of the immortality peaches and host of otherworldly gatherings.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shoulao:<\/strong> the Star God of Longevity, is often shown with a peach, staff, deer, or other age-related attributes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Magu:<\/strong> appears in later birthday imagery as an immortal woman presenting longevity gifts.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dongfang Shuo:<\/strong> appears in humorous or legendary scenes about stealing peaches from Xiwangmu&#8217;s orchard.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Met&#8217;s jadeite cup 02.18.433a,b takes the shape of a peach and includes a bat, combining longevity with blessing.<sup>[3]<\/sup> A botanical blossom study lacks those cues.<\/p>\n\n<h2>What Do Peach Blossoms Mean in Love, Marriage, and Spring?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Peach blossom has three overlapping but separable histories.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">First, it is a seasonal sign. In a landscape or bird-and-flower album, spring may be the entire subject. Peach blossoms with swallows can intensify that reading; as the guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/swallow-symbolism-chinese-culture\/\">swallow symbolism<\/a> explains, paired birds do not by themselves prove marriage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Second, <em>Tao Yao<\/em> gives blossom, fruit, and leaves a marriage framework. The song praises a bride and wishes harmony for the household she joins. A wedding textile, inscription, or painting that invokes the poem may therefore use peach blossom as part of a marriage blessing. That is different from treating peach as China&#8217;s universal \u201cflower of love.\u201d Butterfly-and-peach imagery can also acquire a courtship or wedding sense, but only when the wider context supports the reading; see the discussion of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/butterfly-symbolism-chinese-culture\/\">butterfly symbolism<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Third, later poetry expanded peach blossom toward beauty, encounter, and desire. Cui Hu contrasts a remembered face with returning blossoms, creating an image of meeting, absence, and longing. Later astrological terminology and modern speech use peach-blossom luck (\u6843\u82b1\u8fd0, t\u00e1ohu\u0101 y\u00f9n) for romantic attention. The phrase should not be projected onto an early poem or unsigned spring painting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Fertility is also conditional. In <em>Tao Yao<\/em>, abundant fruit and foliage support a household-flourishing reading. A single flower branch without a wedding text, fruit, or family setting does not promise children.<\/p>\n\n<h2>What Does Peach Blossom Spring Actually Symbolize?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Peach Blossom Spring is best understood as an imagined community outside ordinary political time. Its inhabitants farm, maintain households, and live without knowledge of later dynastic change. Their separation began in flight from warfare. The story can therefore suggest refuge, social harmony, agrarian sufficiency, withdrawal, and a critical alternative to a disordered world.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The visitor leaves and tries to return, but the route disappears. The ideal cannot become an ordinary mapped destination.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Look for several narrative clues together:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a fisherman or small boat moving along a stream;<\/li>\n<li>a flowering grove and a narrow mountain opening;<\/li>\n<li>an enclosed village with fields, paths, and residents;<\/li>\n<li>a title or inscription containing \u201cPeach Spring\u201d or \u201cPeach Blossom Spring.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\">Zhang Hong&#8217;s dated Met handscroll is explicitly titled <em>Peach Blossom Spring<\/em>, so its narrative is secure.<sup>[5]<\/sup> A grove without figures, cave, village, or title may simply be spring scenery. The tale is neither a historical travel report nor primarily a romance, and it is not automatically a Daoist immortal paradise.<\/p>\n\n<h2>What Did Peach Wood and Taofu Mean in Traditional Rituals?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Peachwood belongs to a material and ritual tradition distinct from peach fruit and flowers. Historical belief linked the wood with powers that could restrain or repel harmful beings. Door traditions told of Shentu and Yulei, figures associated with guarding a supernatural passage beneath a great peach tree. Their names or images could be placed on peachwood boards at an entrance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Taofu became part of New Year door practice and are often discussed as predecessors to written Spring Festival couplets. Wang Anshi&#8217;s line about exchanging \u201cnew peachwood charms for the old\u201d links the changing year, doorway, and renewal. A museum overview likewise traces couplets to boards bearing the guardians&#8217; names.<sup>[6]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The correct language is conditional: peachwood <em>was believed<\/em> to repel harmful forces, and taofu <em>were used<\/em> in protective rites. A modern bracelet, blossom, or fruit does not become protective by sharing the word \u201cpeach,\u201d and this history supplies no placement rules.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Common Peach Motifs and Their Meanings in Chinese Art<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">The smallest meaningful unit is usually the complete composition.

The peach contributes longevity through Xiwangmu&#8217;s immortality fruit. Bat (\u8760, f\u00fa) is a full Mandarin homophone of blessing (\u798f, f\u00fa). When both appear on a birthday dish, cup, textile, or carving, the design can wish its recipient both blessing and long life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Met&#8217;s Yongzheng-period dish 1997.1.11 is catalogued with peaches and bats.<sup>[7]<\/sup> A peach alone does not mean \u201cblessing,\u201d and a bat alone does not mean \u201clongevity.\u201d The guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/bat-symbolism-chinese-culture\/\">bat symbolism in Chinese culture<\/a> explains the homophone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">A crane can strengthen a birthday composition, but a bird beside a blossom may be naturalistic; see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/crane-symbolism-chinese-culture\/\">crane symbolism<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Nine Peaches and Birthday Ceramics<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Nine-peach designs are strongly associated with Qing court ceramics. In an appropriate birthday context, the fruit supplies longevity and nine (\u4e5d, ji\u01d4) can reinforce duration through its exact Mandarin homophone long-lasting (\u4e45, ji\u01d4). The Met&#8217;s Qianlong-mark vase 17.120.194 bears nine peaches, while the museum&#8217;s longevity materials place the work within this auspicious tradition.<sup>[3][8]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This is a situated composition, not permission to turn every count into fortune telling.

Do not isolate one attractive detail.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Choose the relevant system.<\/strong> Classify the work as spring imagery, marriage poetry, immortality or birthday art, literary narrative, ritual belief, naturalistic study, or modern adaptation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Separate history from new intent.<\/strong> A designer may create a new meaning, but should label it as contemporary rather than claiming an ancient universal rule.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"p1\">In a museum, begin with the catalogue: a painted peach is not enough to prove a birthday function. For a wedding, peach blossom can cite <em>Tao Yao<\/em> when framed as a household blessing. In a tattoo, fruit may reference longevity, blossom spring or youth, and a fisherman entering a grove Peach Blossom Spring. No ancient tattoo canon fixes colors, counts, or directions. A logo may simplify these images, but should state which tradition it adapts.<\/p>\n\n<h2>FAQs About Peach Symbolism in Chinese Culture<\/h2>\n\n<h3>Does the Peach Always Symbolize Longevity in China?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">No. Peach fruit has a strong longevity association in birthday art and Xiwangmu mythology. Blossom, peachwood, a grove, and Peach Blossom Spring belong to other systems. Even fruit should be checked against the object&#8217;s function and companion motifs.<\/p>\n\n<h3>What Is the Difference Between Peach Fruit and Peach Blossom Symbolism?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Peach fruit enters immortality mythology and wishes for long life. Peach blossom begins with spring, youth, and seasonal beauty; in <em>Tao Yao<\/em> or a documented wedding setting, it can support a household blessing. Their cultural histories are not interchangeable.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Do Peach Blossoms Symbolize Love or Marriage?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Only in context. <em>Tao Yao<\/em> connects flowering peach, a bride, and a harmonious household; later poetry adds beauty, encounter, or longing. A plain spring landscape does not automatically mean love, marriage, or peach-blossom luck.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Is Peach Blossom Spring a Love Story?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">No. Tao Yuanming describes a hidden farming community whose ancestors withdrew from war. The fisherman discovers it and cannot return. The work concerns refuge, social harmony, seclusion, and an unattainable ideal\u2014not romantic love.<\/p>\n\n<h3>What Does a Chinese Peach Tattoo Mean?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">A modern tattoo may use fruit for longevity, blossom for spring or youth, <em>Tao Yao<\/em> for marriage, or a grove and fisherman for Peach Blossom Spring. Meaning depends on imagery and intent. There is no ancient peach-tattoo canon, fixed lucky color or count, or supernatural effect.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Sources<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">[1] Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. <a href=\"https:\/\/powo.science.kew.org\/taxon\/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:1212858-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Prunus persica<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[2] Chinese Text Project. <a href=\"https:\/\/ctext.org\/book-of-poetry\/tao-yao\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Book of Poetry \u2014 Tao Yao<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[3] The Metropolitan Museum of Art. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/essays\/longevity-in-chinese-art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Longevity in Chinese Art<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[4] Chinese Text Project. <a href=\"https:\/\/ctext.org\/wiki.pl?chapter=682651&amp;if=en&amp;remap=gb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tao Yuanming, Record of Peach Blossom Spring<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[5] The Metropolitan Museum of Art. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/73650\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Zhang Hong, Peach Blossom Spring<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[6] Bowers Museum. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowers.org\/index.php\/collection\/collections-blog\/happy-spring-festival\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Happy Spring Festival!<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[7] The Metropolitan Museum of Art. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/39532\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dish with Peaches and Bats<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[8] The Metropolitan Museum of Art. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/42317\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vase with Nine Peaches<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0421\u0438\u043c\u0432\u043e\u043b\u0438\u043a\u0430 \u043f\u0435\u0440\u0441\u0438\u043a\u0430 \u0432 \u043a\u0438\u0442\u0430\u0439\u0441\u043a\u043e\u0439 \u043a\u0443\u043b\u044c\u0442\u0443\u0440\u0435 \u0437\u0430\u0432\u0438\u0441\u0438\u0442 \u043e\u0442 \u0438\u0437\u043e\u0431\u0440\u0430\u0436\u0435\u043d\u0438\u044f. \u0423\u0437\u043d\u0430\u0439\u0442\u0435, \u0447\u0435\u043c \u043e\u0442\u043b\u0438\u0447\u0430\u044e\u0442\u0441\u044f \u043f\u043b\u043e\u0434, \u0446\u0432\u0435\u0442\u044b, \u043f\u0435\u0440\u0441\u0438\u043a\u043e\u0432\u0430\u044f \u0434\u0440\u0435\u0432\u0435\u0441\u0438\u043d\u0430, \u0418\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0447\u043d\u0438\u043a \u043f\u0435\u0440\u0441\u0438\u043a\u043e\u0432\u044b\u0445 \u0446\u0432\u0435\u0442\u043e\u0432 \u0438 \u043c\u043e\u0442\u0438\u0432\u044b \u0441 \u0434\u0435\u0432\u044f\u0442\u044c\u044e \u043f\u0435\u0440\u0441\u0438\u043a\u0430\u043c\u0438.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3928,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"elementor_theme","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[252],"tags":[255],"class_list":["post-3935","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chinese-symbols-meanings","tag-flower-and-plant-symbolism"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO Pro 5.0.3 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Peach symbolism in Chinese culture changes with the image.
