The Chinese garden, also known as a Chinese classical garden, is a style of garden developed under the influence of traditional Chinese culture. Historically, through the gardens, people sought out ways to emulate the harmonious and idyllic places of the natural world that long have inspired the Chinese aesthetics and arts of painting and poetry. It provided a shelter for one to connect with nature and an idealistic way of life.
Chinese gardens used plants as symbols. Bamboo was used in every traditional Chinese garden. This is because bamboo represents a strong but resilient character. Often pine is used to represent longevity, persistence, tenacity and dignity. The lotus is used to symbolize purity. The plum blossom is one of the most important aspects of a Chinese garden, as it represents renewal and strength of will. Flowering peaches are grown for spring color, and sweet olive as well. The chrysanthemum is used to symbolize splendor, luster and "the courage to make sacrifices for a natural life". Peonies symbolize wealth and banana trees are used simply for the sound they make in the breeze.
