They are really stunning flowers, Jeanette. I don't know if I have a favorite one. I think I like whatever is blooming at the time. If I had to pick one or two, I love my white true lilies and my coneflowers.

I love them all. I think that I would choose hibiscus if I were choosing one...or maybe tea roses. But like @faerywings, I do love whatever is blooming and adding color to my yard and pool deck. And I really do love blossoms on my lemon tree!
Me too! The scents are just fabulous. Unfortunately, since I live in a condo I can't garden like I used to, but I did plant some lily of the valley pips last summer near my front door...I hope they made it through the winter!
Yes, the coneflowers are awesome too. I have them in my garden. I also love the they attracto so many butterflies!
The lily of the valley is such a sweet flowers. We call it a " lelietje van dalen "
O wow, a lemon tree. That doesn't work here, too cold. But I love would love to have one!
I have always loved Hydrangeas and I have beautiful Hydrangeas that will be coming up soon. They're all white. I also like daisies and any kind of mums.
Sunflowers ... yes .... love them too!
Hydrangeas...they remind me of my grandmother...there were beautiful bushes in the front yard..they were all pink...

Yes!! Between the coneflower and bee balm, I get lots of bees and butterflies in the garden. and I love watching them, especially the bees when their feet get all coated in pollen, like little yellow bubble socks.
I had a huge lavender plant- and it was gorgeous and smelled amazing. It didn't make it last winter, it was covered by too much snow for way too long. I was heartbroken when I had to take it out. I bought another one last spring and I hope that it grows. It's really puny at the moment.
Ah that is sad. But they grow easily!I had a huge lavender plant- and it was gorgeous and smelled amazing. It didn't make it last winter, it was covered by too much snow for way too long.

Hydrangeas are beautiful indeed. My mother always buys them for me. One each year. I have quite a lot of them around the house.
Sunflowers are so beautiful. I had a lot of them last year in my garden behind my house. This garden is rather small, and the sunflowers grew so large. My whole garden was covered by them. They were amazing, but my husband wasn't too happy with them. So no sunflowers this year, at least not so many!
They look so cute then!!!
Hmmmmm - roses, violets, pansies? Too many to choose. I love when the honeysuckle blooms, though. It's one of the scents COVID didn't take from me!
I love daffodils... back in Europe they mean winter is over and spring is here... the ones that makes me squeal with joy at the moment, however, are orchids - here in Indonesia they grow outdoors (never ceases to amaze me) and I've got a few tied to a tree... currently blooming...
