If I had to pick a flower that reminded me of Pakistan, it would have to be the big, bright, orange 'gainde ka phool' or the marigold. It is used extensively at pre-wedding festivities in Pakistan, but that is not the only reason I remember it fondly. It's a cheerful flower. I think my father agreed because they always got a prominent place in our garden.
