The Apple blossom blooms are about 4 cm in diameter; being formed of 5 petals the clustered flowers are borne on long stalks. Beside of they have plenty of stamens and five styles that are joined with villose at the base.
Pyrus coronaria gives rise to marvelous flowers every spring season. These aromatic blooms are the official state flowers of two American states that are Arkansas and Michigan.
Arkansas declared the apple blossom as its official state flower in 1901 as it was a main apple producing state. Till today Lincoln City in Washington County sets up an Arkansas Apple Festival every year. Michigan got Pyrus coronaria as the official state flower in 1897. This state is the 3rd biggest apple producing state of America.
