In 1959, the lawmakers officially designated the native species Rhododendron macrophyllum as the state flower. | 1959 |

| Xalq mahnısı | "Roll On, Columbia, Roll On" | The Bonneville Power Administration produced a film in the 1940s encouraging Pacific Northwest residents to use power generated by the recently built Bonneville and Grand Coulee dams along the Columbia River. Folk musician Woody Guthrie was hired to write songs for the project; "Roll On, Columbia, Roll On", described as "an ode to the harnessing of Washington's mightiest river", was the most popular of the 26 songs. In 1987, the song was officially designated as the state folk song by the Legislature. | 1987 |

The common green darner drago1nfly was designated as the state insect in 1997 following a proposal by students at Crestwood Elementary School in Kent and the support of children in more than 100 school districts statewide.

|
| Dəniz məməlisi | Orka (Orcinus orca) |
Following a proposal submitted by students at Crescent Harbor Elementary in Oak Harbor, the Legislature adopted the orca as the state marine mammal in 2005 since it attracts many tourists, is a significant symbol for the Native American culture, and pods of the whales migrate through Puget Sound each year. The designation is also intended to promote awareness of the whale and encourage protection of the marine environment. | 2005 |

| Ağac | Qərb tsuqası (Tsuga heterophylla) |
In 1946, The Portland Oregonian "teased" Washington for not having a state tree, suggesting the western hemlock for its neighbor. Washington newspapers preferred the popular western red cedar, but state representative George Adams insisted on the western hemlock, claiming the species would become "the backbone of [the] state's forest industry".[9] Adams' bill passed the Legislature and became law in 1947. | 1947 |

| Tərəvəz | Uolla-Uolla şirin soğanı (Allium cepa) |
Originally from the island of Corsica, a sweet onion seed was brought to Walla Walla by a French soldier more than a century ago. Well-suited for the climate offered by southeastern Washington, many Walla Walla Valley farmers continue to grow the onions today. The onion was designated as the state vegetable due to the persistence of students at Eatonville Middle School and Kirkland Junior High School.[13] | 2007 |
