CONNECTICUT STATE FLOWER

CONNECTICUT STATE FLOWER


Mountain laurel 

Kalmia latifolia 

Designated as the State Flower by the General Assembly in 1907, the Mountain Laurel is perhaps the most beautiful of native American shrubs. Its fragrance and the massed richness of its white and pink blossoms so vividly contrast with the darker colors of the forests and the fields that they have continually attracted the attention of travelers since the earliest days of our colonization.
