The Floral Emblems of Canada series is a 13-part, floral-themed celebration of Canada that forms a national bouquet within your collection.
Beautiful purple saxifrage (Saxifraga oppositifolia) is known as aupaluktunnguat in Inuktitut, one of Nunavut's four official languages. This star-shaped flower is one of Canada's northernmost wildflower species. It's also one of the first signs of spring in the Arctic, where its speedy re-emergence after a harsh winter is symbolic of the hardy, determined nature of the region's inhabitants.
