What are your favorite types of flowers to receive? Personally, I love carnations! I have been teasing my husband lately asking him what my favorite flower is over and over again. I'm hoping he will get the clue that I want some for Valentine's Day! I don't typically want flowers, but for some reason this year, I do!

I hope you get the roses this year! They are beautiful flowers. My husband usually gets me roses for special occassions. I love them, but I like carnations a little bit more. Have a wonderful Valentine's Day!

Red or white roses is what i want for valentines day. But i don't think that my husband is going to give that to me this valentines since i am wanting him to buy me a very big teddy bear! heheh! I wanted something cuddly and soft since this year will be our cotton wedding anniversary.

That's a great idea for your cotton wedding anniversary. We struggled with what to get for ours. We ended up getting some really nice bath towels. It wasn't very romantic, but we didn't have a lot of money, so it was practical and fulfilled our gift. Later on, we bought a beautiful cotton wall hanging, so we made up for it!

I love roses of all types, carnations also very attractive and if this is made up of roses it looks even more better

Fuji mums are my favorite flowers to get! They are just so interesting looking! But I'm happy with any type of flowers! I'm really into photography, and I especially love taking photos of flowers. So I love to get flowers as gifts! I set them up how I want, then set up just the right lighting, then I spend hours photographing the flowers from all different angles! It's so much fun! My mom's birthday was yesterday and I bought her a bouquet of tulips. She was really excited! She said she's never gotten tulips as a gift before and they're some of her favorite flowers!

I don't really know what a Fuji mum looks like, so I'm going to look it up! That is so neat that you photography flowers. I love looking at pictures of flowers. They are so beautiful and you can almost smell their fragrance in a good picture. I love tulips, too! I'm sure your Mom felt great that you got her a bouqet of tulips. That was very sweet! Thanks for your response!

i love all kinds. but pink roses and pink tulips are my favorites. they are just so refreshing and sweet to look at but its kinda bit expensive now a days esp here in the midwest maybe because is its winter time. long ago, I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and i got so depressed, my husband thought flowers would cheer me up a bit, he bought me some. well it did. from that day on, he gives me a bouquet of flowers everysingle month, with or without occasion...sometimes he just buy the cheap kind, mostly mums, other times he buy the expensive ones...irregardless, i still find it sweet. I love seeing fresh flowers when i wake up, it makes me smile. i hope you get your flowers on valentines day *wink*

My favorite flowers to get would be live ones that I can plant and then enjoy for ages rather than cut ones that I'll throw out in a week. But I still appreciate the gesture and enjoy cut flowers as well if given to me.

Yes, that would be a great gift! I tend to kill every plant that I ever receive, so the short term flowers work good for me :-)

Carnations  - These are the flowers I got for Valentines Day this year.
My favorite flowers to get are carnations. After years and years of being married to me my husband finally knows that, he kept getting me roses which are nice but they don't last long. Now he knows I like carnations. I think we get that from our mother. I got a pretty colorful boquet of carnations for Valentines Day. Here is a picture of them.

I overwhelmingly love TULIPS, in fact, when I get married I want a Tulip bouquet!Tulips are wonderful, they are beautiful to look at. They seemed symbolize genuine affection, prosperity and happiness. But all variety of Tulips in our country are very expensive maybe because this is exported from Belgium and Netherlands, that makes them more special and precious.

i love white roses. because it always reminds me how my boyfriend became romantic during my birthday. i celebrated my birthday last october, my boyfriend said he cant come and celebrate it with me because he is busy with his work. so i go to my work and do my daily routine. i was not really expecting him because of his excuses. at the middle of the day, a guy entered our office and sing happy birthday and there at the door, my boyfriend, with a bouquet of white roses. as in i really cant believe it because before if he say he cant come, he really will not come. and this time he comes, wow, i feel heaven that day. im thankful of having me in my live.. :)
