Wait! What are your favorite perennial flowers? with the last post less than 2 weeks ago is on this sub-forum.

How about annuals?

Okay. I can be in both camps :D. Since they have to be in a very, very protected location to survive as a perennial in a colder, temperate Winter – how about Snapdragons? Lifting above smaller, border plants, contrasting from  face flowers, available in many, beautiful colors (!), they have a gentle, pleasant fragrance. You can even grow those that don't  snap at you!

An annual plant that is easy to grow — the Snapdragon.

What flower do you love the most, why and what's its origin? Waiting for all your replies...⏳

Mine: I love those fully grown roses😍
I love sunflowers, peonies, camelias, and so many more! I have loved camelias since I was 8 years old. We lived in an old house that had a narrow bricked path along the east side of the house where there were lots of different plants and flowers growing. It was kind of a secret place that was protected on one side by an old tall wooden fence that separated our place from the neighbors. It also had mosses and vines growing there and a trellis with gorgeous lilacs climbing over to make shade. It was quiet and the fragrance was so lovely.
