Did you know??Flowers which can be used for pooja
As seen earlier like these 21 flowers also are of great significance. Each of them possesses a unique aroma or fragrance, which is capable of healing etc. Most of these flowers are also used in Devi Puja, and other Pujas. Most of these may not be available commercially in the market and should be collected from meadows, private gardens etc.

Most of these flowers do not bear fruits (like hibiscus, kunda, jati,chrysanthemum) or are collected from the ground after they have fallen on the ground (like vakula, parijata) or have other modes of vegetative propagation (like Punna etc..) or they produce substantial amount of flowers so that, collecting a little bit of them shouldn't harm or hurt the plants. In general (unless for special occasions) flowers like mums or hibiscus are preferred as we don't harm the plant or do not offer the pollinated flowers to Lord.
Also, these flowers should be ideally collected early in the morning before 6.00 AM, when they are not in full bloom to avoid, bees, etc.. Usually mango flowers aren't collected.
This glower has the glory of being mentioned n Azwar Paasurams, Lalitha 1000 and also used for this Pooja. Punna tree, looks like a laurel tree and it's seeds are used for oil extraction.
As ween in the third picture, beautiful garlands could be made of these petals and the stigma. Usually the white colored variety is used in pujas. Root, leaves, latex, and flowers are all medicinal. It is used in treating snake poisons etc. They also possess purgative qualities.
There were white, yellow and red versions of this flower. Usually for Ganesha/ Shiva white are preferred. and for Ambal it's yellow. Red ones, are not usually used for Pujas.
