What is the state flower of Idaho?

The state flower of Idaho is the syringa, also known as the mock orange. This fragrant, white-flowered shrub blooms in late spring and is found throughout the state in natural woodlands and gardens. The syringa is hardy and well-suited to Idaho’s climate, thriving in the state’s high-altitude environments. Its sweet-smelling blossoms are often associated with Idaho’s natural beauty, particularly during the flowering season. The syringa was officially designated as Idaho’s state flower in 1931, and it remains a symbol of the state’s pristine landscapes.
