Dropping of the Edelweiss
If you are visiting one of our Helen, Georgia cabins near the end of the year, you may want to find an activity for you and your family. Here is some updated information about the Dropping of the Edelweiss, which is a Helen, Georgia celebration of the New Year.
The Edelweiss Flower
The Edelweiss is a German mountain flower. The Edelweiss is a flower that means notoriety in its complete essence. It’s prized where it naturally grows and is created to be a symbol by its local region because it’s only obtained by a few when it lies waiting in its natural habitat. It, therefore, captivates the symbolic qualities of adventure and great sacrifice. The actual German translation of the word, “Edelweiss,” literarily means noble and white. This flower has tomentose, a wooly appearance of white hairs, on its leaf and flower structures that creates the flower’s hairy and silvery character. It grows to heights of 16 inches and develops its flower into a double-star formation between the months of July and September. It has symbolic qualities of adventure and great sacrifice.
