The 8th of March is the International Women’s Day. This civil holiday was born as a political event, and over the course of years blended into the culture of many countries, to the point that in some celebrations, the day has lost its political flavour. The symbol of the day is the yellow mimosa and expression of female solidarity. The origin of the custom is lost, but it is said to have started in Rome after World War II. Men began giving the mimosa to their partners, friends, co-workers and family give to their significant others, colleagues, mothers and sisters blossoming branches of this tree. Scent of mimosas fills the air and reminds every one not only the meaning of this day, but also that spring is nearing.
