THE HISTORY

The triggering episode took place in New York on the night of the 25th of March 1911. The employees of the Triangle textile factory went on strike to demand better working conditions and the owners' response was to lock them inside the factory. A fire broke out that night and 146 women died, another 71 were seriously injured. It was a tragedy that shocked the world, giving rise to episodes of rebellion by female workers all over the planet.

A few years later, on the 8th of March 1917, fleets of Russian women marched on St Petersburg to appeal for the end of the war. The march was the beginning of many popular uprisings that marked the end of the Romanov dynasty. From that moment on, 8 March was proclaimed International Women Workers' Day. This anniversary then spread all over the world as did the symbol chosen to celebrate it: the mimosa flower.

There are several reasons why this plant was chosen. Firstly, it is affordable for all budgets, and secondly, it was the flower that grew next to the New York factory that burnt down in 1911. The mimosa flower was also used by Native Americans to woo their beloveds and prove them their feelings. For all these reasons, we can finally say that it is one of the flowers that most represents this celebration in many countries around the world. The mimosa flower is made up of many small yellow entities that form a joyful and lively plant, capable of growing even in rather difficult terrain. In short, this flower perfectly sums up the strength of the fairer sex.
