On Kim Il Sung's birthday - the North Korean equivalent of Christmas Day - we attended a special flower exhibition on the two national flowers of DPRK: the Kimilsungia and the Kimjongilia. The flower exhibition was beautiful. There were many ornate and complicated displays of the two national flowers in different 'scenes'. For example, one scene was a reunified Korea, another scene was Kim Il Sung's childhood home, and another scene glorified the two Kims. The scenes were remarkable for their level of sophistication and beauty.

The Kimilsungia is named after the Great Leader, Kim Il Sung. The Kimilsungia is a purple orchid. The name Kimilsungia was officially given to the purple orchid by the President of Indonesia. Kim Il Sung travelled to Indonesia for a state visit. His counterpart, Sukarno (the first President of Indonesia) took Kim Il Sung on a tour of the Bogor Botanical Garden where the North Korean leader admired the orchid. Sukarno honoured Kim Il Sung with the name of this orchid because, apparently, Kim Il Sung was entitled to such a great honour since he had done so much for humankind.


Me and some Kim Il Sung propaganda.

Kimilsungia flower shows are held every year in Pyongyang. The few embassies of foreign countries in North Korea - including Russia, China, and Sweden - usually present their own special bouquet of the flower to the exhibition. The North Korean government says that Kim Il Sung's peerless character is "fully reflected in the immortal flower" which is "blooming everywhere on the five continents".
The Kimjongilia is named after the Dear Leader, Kim Jong Il. The Kimjongilia is a red begonia. The begonia was cultivated by Japanese botanist, Motoderu Kamo, who especially named it after the Dear Leader to commemorate his 46ths birthday in 1988. The begonia supposedly represents the Juche Idea and therefore symbolizes wisdom, love, justice, and peace. It is designed to bloom every year on Kim Jong-il's February 16 birthday.

Emily stopping to smell the Kimjongilias.
