Among them, the lotus is particularly sacred, its eight petals are in the image of the universe, and it is believed to be the dwelling of the great God, Hyang Widhi.

The striking red flowers of the hibiscus, meanwhile, represent the courage of warriors, and the Balinese would go off to battle with these big bright flowers behind their ears. Today in Bali, you can see dancers dressed as warriors, with sabres on their backs, holding these flowers and simulating a battle.

The ‘dadap merah’ or ‘cockscomb coral’- so called because its rich velvet-ruby flowerheads resemble the comb of a rooster- also plays a part in Hindu rituals, including wedding ceremonies.

Finally, the sweet scented waxy blossoms of the frangipani are used in every form of decoration, including the spectacular head dresses of the Balinese legong dancers. Often planted near Hindu temples, the frangipani is a symbol of immortality because the tree will continue to blossom even after it has been uprooted.
