Once upon a time, high in the mountains of Mexico, a Dahlia flower bloomed. Its petals were a deep pink, as if freshly soaked in the first light of the rising sun.
The flower was named 'Alō' (Light). The other flowers, which stayed all year round, were a little surprised by 'Alō', as it only appeared during a very specific time of the year. It arrived just as the green world was growing tired and the summer heat was fading.
Every morning, a little Hummingbird would visit 'Alō'. The Hummingbird collected nectar throughout the year, but 'Alō's nectar was the sweetest of all.
One day, the Hummingbird asked 'Alō', "You are so beautiful, but why do you come for such a short time?"
'Alō' smiled gently and replied, "If I were here all the time, my arrival would not be so special. I come when nature is playing its farewell tune, to remind people that life's most beautiful moments are often fleeting, and therefore, those moments should be enjoyed with deep attention and joy."
The Hummingbird nodded upon hearing this. From then on, whenever it came to 'Alō', it didn't just drink the nectar, but like the dew collecting on the flower's petals, it truly felt and appreciated the beautiful, short moment itself.
The Dahlia, 'Alō', taught everyone through its transient beauty that "anything of great value requires waiting, and the joy found at the end of that wait is the sweetest."
Would you like to know more about caring for Dahlia flowers or their different varieties?
