using First National Economic and Social Development
Plan. There are many forms of local development
projects, most of which focus on the economy in the
community as a model for the development of the
province. Therefore, there is a policy for every
government agency to plant ornamental and perennial
plants in every government area and recommend planting
plants named Kanlapapruek and Pradauk plants for 2
reasons: Beautiful flower types and is strong and
resistant to weathering Kalapapruek tree is a thin bark
Can't fight the drought Almost all dead Only left
Therefore designated as a provincial tree and provincial
flower on that occasion because the wood is growing very
slowly Later, I tried to plant Kanlapaphruek,
Chaiyapruek and Inthanin again. Some of these remains to
be seen, some of which were cut and destroyed because
the branches affected power and telephone lines.
Therefore, it still holds the Padauk flower as the
provincial flower in the original concept. The names are
called Pradu, Ban Pradu Lai Sano and Pradu, India.
