The state Maryland is named in honour of Henrietta Maria (queen of Charles I of England). Black-eyed flower is the most loved flower of Henrietta Maria. That’s why the black-eyed flower is state flower of Maryland.

The state flower of Vermont is primal veris or cowslip. Primula veris (Cowslip) is a flowering plant in the genus Primula, native throughout most of temperate Europe and Asia although absent from more northerly areas including northern Scotland.

It is a low growing herbaceous perennial plant with a rosette of leaves 5-15 cm long and 2-6 cm broad. The deep yellow flowers are produced in the spring between April and May; they are in clusters of 10-30 together on a single stem 5-20 cm tall, each flower 9-15 mm broad.

Golden Wattle (Acacia pycnantha) is Australia's floral emblem. It is a small tree, ranging from 4 to 8 metres tall. The mature trees do not have true leaves but have long (6 to 20 cm), sickle-shaped, photosynthetic stalks called phyllodes. The trees flower in spring (generally September) producing fragrant fluffy golden flowers.
