Not because it's the most beautiful flower, but my dad loved roses and I have some wonderful memories from my very young age working in the flower gardens around the house with him.
It's hard to pick a favorite, although I do love irises. I've been a member of the local iris society for about 3 years. Also, roses, orchids, and many more.
I was going to say the cauli-flower, because not only can you look at it, you can eat it as well. However, to be serious, although so many flowers are beautiful I have always thought that the orchid was a kind of level above, a flower with a unique quality. Back in my teenage days, when I would take a date to a formal dance, I would usually give my date a corsage of roses, unless she was very very special to me, in which case I would splurge on an orchid corsage.
Tell us what your favorite flower is...
Roses.

They have a wonderful smell..
Amaryllis for beauty and magnolias for smell.
They do smell nice.
The simple daisy ... I'm looking forward to pushing some up.
Daisy’s are nice and gives you that feeling of spring,
I hope you will not be doing that too soon.
I'm on the waiting list to get into Hell.
I will probably end up on that list too.. : )
What we live today isn't hell? Damn, I'm totally eff'd!!
You won't survive 'today' without a sense of humor and neither will you get into Hell without one. At all costs ignore Dante.
I'll save you a seat at the bar ... middle or end?
End, it’s closest to the bathrooms.
I sit at the end also, it gives the person at the opposite end enough time to get drunk and find me attractive.
Carnations.
Nice, they last long too.
Iris.
Very pretty pics, the last one reminds of a pansy.
Very nice.
whatever the daughter tosses on top of the box before they fill that hole with dirt.
Really? So what flower would your daughter toss?
she wouldn't toss any, I'm being cremated.
So am I.
I have three (I'm sorry, but I can't make my mind up)
1. Tulips
2. Iris (Greg, look we have something in common! )
3. Day Lillies
Lillie’s are my favorite too. The one I have pictured.
I know it’s hard, it’s okay to list more...

From our garden last spring:
Cactus flower
The cactus flower is interesting.
And then there is always the Dubai Miracle Garden to pick one from ...
Hydrangea, African daisy, gardenia.
Very pretty Jane...
sunflowers, I want to plant a long line of them along the fence this spring

Orchids are beautiful.
If you had to pick just one, what would it be?
Just for fun, what is your favorite flower?
The Fun Flower of course.
What are those called? They look like some kind of cactus.
LOL
Cannabis Sativa Flowers
MJ / Mary Jane, stinky herb.
Lotus flower
There are so many where I am...
I consider this to be one of my best photos:
I'm with Perrie on this one. The difference being, i spell Tulips with two words
What's better than roses on a piano...
tulips on an organ.
For fragrance, the mock orange, which I only recently found out the name. It's a flowering bush, not common in a bouquet.
And for some reason, I've always found lavender colored roses to be especially fragrant. Considered a flowering bush, but common in a bouquet.
My favorite tree flower though, is the Purple Robe Locust; not common in a bouquet:
Love the roses in the vase...
Yeah... they're just a photo I found online.
That’s okay, still pretty...
Blanket flower....

and red clover or white clover. It is good for the ground and bees love it.
