Tiruvannamalai Puja Flowers

Certain trees and shrubs considered sacred in that their flowers are used in worship, are currently being planted throughout the Tiruvannamalai area.

On a personal note I would consider that the most sacred of trees and shrubs would be those that are not picked throughout the flowering season and used for such worship. But thats just my personal opinion!

Below is a list of some of the trees that are specially planted in this area so that their flowers may be used in worship:
