I love roses. I love the variety and the assortment of colors. I really really love the fragrance that roses give, oh how divine! I love roses so much that I used them when I am giving my clients pedicures. I pick the roses from the rose bushes and put the pedals in a brown paper bag until they are dry. This is how I am able to preserve and keep them longer. The aroma is so beautiful I can't help myself sometimes. God created a beautiful thing when He gave us flowers and such a vast array of them.

Hi, I do like rose perfume, yum, I grow evening primrose (yellow), they are such entertainment in the evening, all the flowers pop open with minutes of each other just after sunset, hence the name. I absolutely would love to get my hands on some Prince of Wales Feathers seeds, I haven't seen them for ages. I found some rare orchids in the bush in central Victoria on my mining claim and took the environment people up there to see them and tell me all about them, they were really weird, elephant eared spider comb orchid, what a name, but that's exactly what they looked like. :-)

I love to plant sweet alyssum, although I have yet to try planting them directly in the garden, I've grown them successfully in garden bags. I love to sniff the small flowers, they smell like honey!

I like the Daisy the most. I also like mums, roses, and pansies. I love anything that is pretty and colorful. I have several different kinds of flower gardens and I put as much color as I can in each bed.

I adore all flowers but my absolte favorite flower is the pristine, white Casablanca Lily. I love to put a bunch of them in a matte green mission style vase. they also look nice in crystal vases. I planted a bunch of them at my old house along with some lady ferns and they were really beautiful. I have to do that planting again at the new house.

I like roses and freesias. Aroma means alot to me. Fortunately I can grow them myself and not pay the big prices at the florists. Pansies are nice since they seem to have faces and they like the cooler weather to grown in. Hyrdrangeas are big and sturdy and seem indestructible. They become blue depending on the soil conditions it grows in.

I love vinca. They are easy to grow, and are heat tolerant.

Lilacs are by far my favorite flower!! The scent is heavenly, and I only wish they would bloom longer than they do!! California Poppies and cosmos and 2 simple flowers I love in the gardens, because they just float, like little butterflies.

orange roses - I just love orange roses
I love orange roses. I don't know why but they seem to last so much longer than any other color rose. I love the way they look on my dining room table, with a light green table cloth. They're just my all around favorite. Oops- not entirely true. My absolute favorites are the dandelions my kids bring me :)

I love Brugmansia and Passiflora flowers. They are bold and beautiful. Brugmansia sanguinea is red on the tip, yellow in the center and green at the base. A truly unique specimen if you know how to get them to flower. Passiflora species come in many different colors. Some of them even produce edible fruit. If you do not know either of these species, I suggest you do an image search. Then you can see the true beauty of these flowers.
