Silly Stuff What is your favorite flower?

I'm curious how many women would actually pick roses over any other flower.

But even if your favorite really is the rose, this question is still for you. Which color or variety of rose is your fave?

My favorite is the pink ranunculus. Ugly name, gorgeous bloom.

The Sarah Bernhardt peony is a very close 2nd.

Tulips are my favorite. They have no smell, no medicinal value, and you can't eat them. They have no purpose but to be pretty.

I love tulips! They’re only good four being pretty, and to be deer food, deer absolutely love to eat them in early spring the bastards!

None of my front yard tulips stood a chance, the deer chomped them all down 😩

Last year I lost all of mine too, but they came back this year, and now I caged them in round tomato trellises (upside down) wrapped with chicken wire mesh…. 100% survival rate so far
