We know that : 

Graph 1 & 2

F1

(Roses/Lilies)

F2

(Dahlias)

F3

(Orchids)

F4

(Lilies/Roses)

 TOTAL

WB1

(Jalpaiguri)

 3 5 3 2 13

WB2

(24-Pargans)

 1 3 2 5 11

WB3

(Midnapore)

 4 2 4 1 11

WB4

(Nadia)

 2 4 1 2 9
TOTAL 10 14 10 10 44

Now,

Number of participants in Roses from Nadia = 2, irrespective of which of F1 and F4 are Roses and Lilies respectively

Number of participants in Dahlias from 24-Parganas = 3

Number of participants in Dahlias from Jalpaiguri = 5

Number of participants in Orchids from Midnapore = 4

Hence the highest number of participants was in Dahlias from Jalpaiguri
