Any Guess What the Official Maine State Flower is?

You probably know that Maine's official animal is the moose and that our official tree is a white pine, but you may not know some of the other "official things" of Maine. We have an official fossil, soft drink, sweetener, and even an official herb.  I think we all know what the unofficial herb is.
