    Default Favourite Flower Thread

    Call me crazy, but since this is the Kingdom of Peace and Love I thought that a flower thread would be most appropriate and original.

    Galium odoratum
    It's not very brilliant either, but it spreads such a sweet smell in the woods by the end of april and it's eau-de-vie is sooo nice...

    Wonderful thread.

    I don't know much about flowers but I like tulips. Always reminds me of the friendship between Canada and Holland. Lovely symbology.

    Daffodils. Y'all know what they look like. What they mean is winter is over

    My favorite (and my mother's) is the Japanese Iris.



    I also really like Cala Lilies.



    One of my most popular photographs is titled "Foot, Snail, and Cala Lily," taken one moist California Spring morning in Mendocino. The composition needed counterpoint, so my sandaled foot was inserted. It worked out well.
