Mohina ji, beautiful flowers. We have seen lots of trees during our last trip to Uttarakhand, but the flowering season was over and we have to enjoy the beauty of the trees. It is the State flower of Uttarakhand. The flower is known as buransh and they preserve the flowers in sugar syrup to use later in sharbats, which is good for health.
