圣誕花環(huán)－常青植物寓意上帝永恒

圣誕花環(huán)大多用新鮮草木編結(jié)而成，用以裝飾門庭。所用到的植物通常都是四季常青的……

The Christmas wreath has decorated many a door with fresh greenery. Wreaths are often made of evergreens, including holly, mistletoe, pine and fir.

Because they are green and bear fruit in the winter when other plants appear lifeless and bare, evergreens signify Gods immortality and everlasting life. The wreaths circular shape reminds us of the circles of life, family and love.
