My favorite flower is Rose. Why? because I find it to be representing life. Beautiful flowers and ugly thorns! Life is like a rose, or a rose is like life. There are ups and downs. There are rainy days and sunny days. We can never know what happiness is unless we experience sorrow. We can never know what light is unless we know what darkness is. But all in all - like a rose - we should focus on the beauty of life. We should basked in the wonder of the things around us and be thankful for the things that we have instead of aspiring for things that we don't really need. We should realize that the more important things in life are free - love, companionship, caring, etc. Now I ask you this question. What is your favorite flower?

I love gardenias. They have a wonderful aroma and very soft coloring. The bushes are really nice even when they aren't in bloom. They grow nicely here and you can smell them from a good distance when they are in full bloom.

I love roses, and in all colours, though my favourite is the dark red type.

Beyond doubt rose is my favorite flower - it gives us all the pleasure and at times it can be painful as well.

I love most all flowers but would have to say as I have since I was very young - I love daisies. Why - because I think they remind me of myself, delicate but not fancy and sturdy - I've found daisys growing in the lawn they get mowed down week after week but always come back, that's me :)

I like red roses and malasian mums. When I got married, I had my boquet don in real dark red roses and it looked really classic. Then I had the rest of the flowers for the reception colorful malasian mums. It turned out very pretty. Tulips are also beautiful, yet expensive.

I love yellow roses. I really don't know why but I just love looking at them and they make me relax. But a sprig of flowers bursting with colors still feel good and I love them, too.
