    I love arum lillies too, my other favourites are anthuriums, spider orchids and tulips. I'm not very traditional with my flowers!

    I can't pick just one!

    It's a tie between peonies, lily of the valley, and tulips.

    I love them all. And Karen, I have a dead Fuchsia basket outside my window right now. WTH do those things want?! lol I buy them every year because hummingbirds love them, and I love hummingbirds outside my window, but I can't keep the damn thing alive long enough for a hummingbird to notice it. Grr.

    For my garden I like Impatiens, because they are easy to grow. I also love Hydrangeas.

    Water: Fuchsias are heavy drinkers. A daily thorough watering is required on all but the cloudiest days. Hot days may require two waterings. If the root ball goes seriously dry, soak the pot in a basin of water for an hour or two to re-wet.

    This might explain it. :rofl

    I just love flowers. I don't really have a favorite. :)
    My kids like to bring me the weeds from the yard as a bouquet, so those may be my favorite ;)

    My first instinct was to say "yeah that" to Tracyfish's daisies... but then La's forget-me-nots made me re-think. I think it is a tie.

    Daisies. Any kind. And maybe sunflowers as a close second.

    That's a tough question because I LOVE to garden, but tulips and ranunculus are definitely at the top of my list.

    Lilies. Any kind! I do love lilacs too - we had huge lilac bushes at my childhood home so the smell always brings me back.
