Los Dias de los Muertos, the Days of the Dead, represent the most important celebration of the year in Mexico. The occasion, November 1st and 2nd, is a joyful time of remembrance, family reunion, and feasting, as relatives and friends gather together to honor their loved ones who have died.

Mexican families save all year to buy the flowers, candles, incense, and special foods needed to properly honor their dearly departed. They participate in the construction and decoration of ofrendas (home tabletop displays or altars) to honor their loved ones.

Mexican marigolds (called zempascuchitl) and cock’s comb are the flowers most associated with the Days of the Dead. The marigold is particularly pungent in aroma as is the copal incense that is burned on the ofrenda and in the cemetery.
