Why does every city have a city flower?

City flower is an important symbol of city image and a business card of modern city. A considerable number of large and medium-sized cities in China have their own city flowers. The determination of the city flower can not only represent a city's unique cultural landscape, cultural heritage and spiritual outlook, but also reflect the harmonious unity between man and nature, which is of great significance for promoting the development of city-related green industries, optimizing the urban ecological environment, improving the city's taste and popularity, and enhancing the city's comprehensive competitiveness.
