Apple Blossom (Pyrus Coronaria) Apples have been associated with Michigan since the early 1700s, before the United States was even born. The famous Johnny Appleseed planted apples in Michigan, which became one of the biggest commercial apple-growing states. Today, it ranks second only to Washington State as an apple producer.   William Harris is credited with proposing the apple blossom as state flower. The legislator was reportedly inspired by a large apple orchard across from his home in Norwood, Michigan. Anna Eliza Woodcock knew about the apple blossom bill. When her Snow apple trees burst into beautiful blossoms, she had an idea. Since she lived just two blocks from the Capitol, she would put some apple blossoms in a wheelbarrow and deliver them!   The fragrant blossoms certainly didn’t hurt the cause. The blossom of the apple tree was adopted as Michigan’s state flower on April 28, 1897.
