Interesting Fact: The interesting thing about this plant is that It is believed with reference of Hindu epic Mahabharata that :
There are about 100 of blue petals – one for each of the Kauravas.
5 of the yellow ones in the centre – one for each of the Pandavas.
The green bulb in the centre symbolises Draupadi, the queen of Pandava.
The three filaments are for the holy trinity of Brahma-Vishnu-Shiv and the radial in the centre is the Sudarshan chakra of Lord Krishna.
