"text": "National Orange Blossom Day, observed annually on June 27, celebrates the fragrant white flower of the orange tree. Orange blossoms are appreciated for their beauty and sweet citrus scent, as well as their many uses in culinary dishes, desserts, teas, perfumes, and home fragrances. They can also lend a delicate citrus flavor to food and drinks.\nThe orange blossom is Florida’s state flower and has long been associated with good fortune and happiness. Orange blossom water is used in cuisines around the world, while bees gathering nectar from citrus groves produce honey with a distinctive orange flavor. The blossoms’ fragrance has also made them a valued ingredient in perfumes.\nThe holiday’s origin and founder are not documented. Its subject, however, has a much longer history: orange blossoms have been used in wedding bouquets and wreaths, and Queen Victoria’s use of an orange blossom wreath helped popularize the flowers as a bridal symbol. Today, the day offers a chance to pause and appreciate this small flower’s beauty, fragrance, and versatility. Southeast AgNET describes the day’s culinary, floral, and fragrance connections.",
