Shasta Daisys. They are such friendly flowers. I have them everywhere for several reasons. They are easy to take care of, bloom through much of the summer, the deer don't touch them and the biggest reason they remind me of my daughter. She was not fancy like a rose, but cute, friendly and loving. Just like daisys.

Yep sure do. Jonquils are my favorite spring flower, and my favorite cut flower is a carnation. Both of these last for up to two weeks when cut and put in a vase in the house. The rest of the flowers are wonderful too. Fall brings to me large garden mums in yellows and purples, and Summer roses the tea roses, winter of course brings Christmas cactus.

I have fallen in love with hibiscus since we moved to Florida but our hard winters have killed them all. Lost the last double red one this year and not sure I'll even replant any. Our winters here have changed so much.

I love hibiscus....reminds me of the wonderful vacation I had on Maui a few years back. Attached is a picture of the one I grow in a big pot in my house. I bought it as soon as I got home from Maui, and it has bloomed ever since. The color reminds me of the Hawaiian sunset.
