Indian State Flowers
Every Indian state has an official state flower, chosen for its cultural, ecological, or historical significance. These flowers symbolize the natural beauty and heritage of the region.
For instance, the Lotus, India's national flower, is also the state flower of Haryana and Karnataka, while the Rhododendron represents Uttarakhand. Some flowers are deeply rooted in local traditions, like Tamil Nadu’s Glory Lily (Gloriosa Superba) and West Bengal’s Night-flowering Jasmine (Parijat). These floral emblems highlight the biodiversity of India’s regions, with some species found only in specific ecological zones.
