your favorite flower or most exotic flower?

My favorite flower is the plumeria. The fragrance reminds me of when I used to live in Hawaii many years ago.

As far a black (close to) flower, there is a Calla lily that is very nearly black-looks like velvet.

I think the most exotic looking flower is the Passion Flower. It has alternate purple and pink with a black centre with yellow and white. It has a slight smell. The most exotic or tropical looking is the strelitzia or Bird of Paradise with it's purple orange and red tinged boat of green. I think Gardenias are the most fragrant with Freesias coming in a close second if not equal. The most pictureesk is the 2000 Russian Mammoth Sunflowers I grew one year at the farm. It was un believable to see the 12 foot tall with over 12 inch flower heads gently bobbing in the wind in the light blue sky.

This is why the florist use the sayin, " Say it with flowers" What else can I say?

My favorite flower is the rose-red prefferred. However, I do believe they have black roses as well.

I like Gardenia, Bird Of Paradise, and simple lilacs as well, purple ones. There are many other flowers I enjoy.

There is one-I think it's a honeysuckle bush-smells so sweet-been my fav since I was a child.

Take care.

My fav is the Lilly as well but there are so many beautiful roses in my garden including a black rose

I have these extremely large white moonflowers that I am trying to experiment with growing them with color

and the Orchid the beautiful white and purple Orchid is very exotic to me

I love the smell of a gardenia. Hibiscus and Bird of Paradise are nice exotics.

My favorite flower is a Lilly they are so pretty and colorful.

The exotic flower I would say............. Bird Of Paradise

The Cattleya orchid is my favourite flower. They are stunningly beautiful and exotic. Below are some links.
