I do not know the significance of using them like What is the result of worshiping with Ankada flowers or the story behind it, but it is mentioned in Parasara Samhita Hanuman Charitam Chapter 49 (एकोन पञ्चाशत्पटलः) Sloka 5 that Arka flowers are used in Puja of Hanuman Ji. कुरण्ट स्थलपद्मानि केसरासन माधवीः । वनमल्ली कर्णिकारं कुब्जार्के चन्द्रकान्तकम् ॥ कुब्जार्के = कुब्ज+अर्के | |
