I am a fan of the lilac. It pains me each year that they only last a month tops and then they are gone. If that. Next in line are carnations, tulips and roses being last. I have never been a conformist so it is natural that the rose is last on my list.

I do like roses. All colors as a matter of fact. I'd have to say that hyacinths are among the nicest that I like. I really do not have a garden or anything but I am keeping some marigolds that I was given recently outside on my deck. I try to water it regularly. They are also very pretty flowers.

Oh yeah. Hyacinths are nice. Marigolds are funny little flowers. They remind me of little lions mains popping out of the ground.

If you love lilacs you should get a Ceanothus. It is also called a California Lilac. There are varieties that bloom almost all summer and late into the fall. My favorite flower is the gardenia followed by azelia. Talk about being a none conformist.

I will keep this in mind. I am always looking for a good lilac bush.

I'm not a huge fan of flowers but I love the blue roses. And yes they have to be blue. No question about that one. I guess you can tell by my avatar. I also love white lillies. Other than those two flowers I really couldn't be bothered with flowers.

Blue roses are nice. I recently saw some purple ones though that made me very happy to see. I wish I knew were to get the bushes for these. The probably have them online somewhere.

I love sampaguita. It is a small flower from a bush yet it smells so sweet. Big things come in small package like this one.

I will take your word for it. You are right that sometimes small is the way to go.

Jasmine almost makes me cry. It reminds me of my childhood home and the fragrance coming in through the window on a warm summer night.
