Very nice.

Speaking of state flowers, I assume that we and other countries have  
national flowers as well. (And do each of the Australian states have  
state flowers as well? What about provincial flowers for countries  
like Canada or South Africa? Do other nations have different flowers  
for each national subdivision--like each country in the UK?)

What are the ones for those on the list? (For example, I don't know  
what the USA national flower is, although I suspect it's the rose.)
Are any of them geophytes? They went by too fast in the presentation  
for me to identify them all, but for example, it looked like Utah's  
state flower is a Calochortus species.
