The tradition of bringing flowers and plants to one's dead is still alive: but what are funerary plants symbolically and traditionally? What are chthonic plants?

With the approach of All Saints we will take a botanical journey into the "underground" world, where we will be guided by yew, broad beans, cypress, pomegranate and other species.
