What plants are most spoken of/unique to Buddhism?

I know the Lotus flower is a major plant in Buddhism, and the Bodhi tree, are there any other plants that correspond to Buddhism?|||there were many bodhisattas who became Buddhas under many different types of trees. all these trees are known as Bodhi Trees. Generally these trees are large, shady and somehow weather proved. Every bodhisatta must find such a tree and practice for enlightenment.





Currently, local plants are significant to the Buddhists in their locality.








mesua ferrea is the Bodhi Tree of the next Buddha - Arimetteya.
