What flowers do you like?

Orchids are my #1. All the various species and hybrids just stole my heart.

I also love cacti, and the various blooms they produce.

Snap-dragons are also really lovely in the garden.

The smell of honeysuckle, man oh man!

Texas sage bushes are also beautiful when in bloom. The pale green foliage with the bright purple little flowers all over.. so pretty.

My fences are a frame work for waterfalls of flowers.

Fireball bee balms. Love the color.

I had a proliferation of white daisies and Black-eyed Susans this summer that made me smile.

And a profusion of pink geraniums in huge pots that had great curb appeal and are still going strong in the back. The front has been redone for Autumn.

Ditto! I've just this year realized how beautiful they are.

Fuckin cactii.

Years ago, I had this snoopy wilderness guide kinda book, and it talked about being able to find water in cacti.

So my mom had this ornamental cactus on the kitchen table, I decided to nick it with a knife out of curiosity. So this white, latexy lookin stuff came out, and being the genius that I was, I wanted to taste it.

It tasted like... pain. Like being shot right in the damn tongue.

Apparently, it's some type of natural insecticide that cacti secret to keep bugs from munching on them. Works just as well on curious young men. My tongue still hurts just thinking about that.

Oh dear. I'll keep that in mind. Certainly you can't deny that the flowers are purty though.

Did it *burn? I read somewhere that some types of cactus have Scoville measurements in the millions.

Cacti are so badass. (Not your experience, I sorry that happened to you)

There are two types of flowers that are kinda similar (they're both order Ranunculales) and I like both of them. One is anemones:

The other is the poppy:

I like orange hawkweed. It's a weed. It is genuinely my favourite.

Yes, like that scene with the box in the David Lynch Dune movie.

 

[kcrown1967]

I'm a +1 for tulips but also love peonies and there are some roses that smell absolutely amazing.

 

[twoton]

Roses, peonies, dahlias, zinnias, I like lots of color.
What's better than a rose on a piano? Tulips on an organ.

 

[Tight_N_Juicy]

Yes, like that scene with the box in the David Lynch Dune movie.

Damn, like you had a mouth full of the hottest chili peppers imaginable
It's pretty incredible how plants have evolved to deal with the world around them, and cacti and orchids are probably my 2 favorite examples of extreme survivors.

I can't help but be reminded of a favorite movie...

Yup. I'm having the same issues. I can only link YouTube videos successfully with the phone. When I try pics/news articles it won't do it. Poo
