if I'm correct, which i might not be, Chinese are not always as 'direct' as Americans, so a melon is the fruit of a particular flower... so considering both of those, indirectly, 'fresh flower' makes sense... I think
I asked a Chinese friend and she said, "鲜花 xiān huā" simply means fresh flowers. So, it is a sign for the guy's fresh flowers behind the melons, haha! Complicated.
About It's Made In China It's Made In China is a blog about everything in, on, made, and going on in China. From food, travel, religion, culture, language, schools, animals, and more; anything and everything (made in) China will be kept in this blog. Due to the blocked websites in China, we will try and post everyday but please bear with us. 做着在中国是所有的东西,事,和新闻关于中国。从食物,旅游,宗教,文化,语言,学校,和动物。由于拦网,我要试每天写个新的博客但包涵我。
