The Flowers of the Four Seasons (Chinese: 四季名花, Sìjì Mínghuā) are a traditional grouping of flowers found in Chinese culture that spread to and influenced other East Asian arts.
In Chinese art and culture, the flowers that represent the four seasons consist of:

(夏荷) Xiahé – Summer – lotus
(秋菊) Qiūjú – Autumn – chrysanthemum
and (冬梅) Dōngméi – Winter – plum blossom
They contain three of the elements of the Four Gentlemen.
