Some people think that the word «rose» comes from the adjective «pink». Of course, this is a delusion, because in reality everything was exactly the opposite. True, there are several plants in the world whose names descended from the names of shades. One of these flowers is a beloved chrysanthemum. The fact is that this word comes from the Greek «chrysos», which translates as «gold». Some of our contemporaries are surprised at what this color has to do with it, because chrysanthemums are not only yellow. In fact, everything is very simple — this name was given to the flower more than two millennia ago, and then the ancient Greeks could see only golden chrysanthemums.
