Fui pesquisar :) e............ Sabias que a laranja surgiu na China? Oranges are native to China and the Far East and are a traditional Chinese symbol of good luck and prosperity – used today in Chinese New Year celebrations. http://www.theworldwidegourmet.com/?action=occasion_show&id=8&lg=en The "Zuo Ke" Ritual - "Being the Guest" As in Western countries, New Year is a time to receive guests. Red paper banners are hung everywhere, inscribed with wishes for happiness, success, longevity or joy. On the afternoon of New Year's day and the following two days, families go out to visit family and friends and sometimes even superiors, to offer good wishes and to "be the guest." A few members of the family stay home to receive their own guests to whom they offer sweets, cakes, tea and tobacco. Offering sweets is a way of expressing a wish for a sweet life and a year without troubles. Children who arrive offering wishes for happiness receive an orange in return for their greetings. The orange symbolizes happiness and longevity. Giving this fruit to children signifies "many more years to come."
Dito por uma chinesa da terra... a árvore das tangerinas está para o Ano Novo Chinês como o pinheiro está para o nosso Natal! E tudo porque o som da palavra chinesa que significa árvore das tangerinas "kat" é semelhante ao vocábulo sorte que em chinês é algo parecido com "tai kat tai lei".
Alguém me sabe dizer se a mini arvore de mini laranjas tem algum significado ou é so porque sim?
