As the national flower of the Philippines, sampaguita holds a special place in our culture and, in San Pedro, has become part of the cityโs identity and a source of livelihood for many. Known as the Sampaguita Capital of the Philippines, San Pedro has long been associated with the tradition of sampaguita growing and garland making.
