My favorite flowers for scent are Plumeria and Hyacinth. I am currently attempting to grow a Plumeria tree in my home here in Michigan. So far so good! My favorite looking flower is the fuschia.

Peonies are my favorite flower. I love the dark pink ones.
It is not their smell or their look, it is the memory.
When I was little we lived in house that had a whole row of peonies, the flower now always reminds me of the good times in my youth.
Summer, warm breezes, happiness.

My favorite flower or plant is the lavender bush. There are many varieties...English, French etc. They are perennials meaning they come back every year. You don't have to keep planting new ones. They come in dark purple, light purple and white. The smell is wonderful and there are many uses for the flowers and leaves. They can be used in potpourri, as an aromatherapy scent to calm or relax, the essential oil also has astringent qualities. It can be used for many different things .... here is a site you can go to online to check out all the different uses for lavender.....http://www.lavendercentral.com/uses.htm

I love Gerbera Daisies for the way they look and their color variety. But for smell its a tie between Gardenias and Plumeria.

I'm a botanist w/ a masters. I like Dianthus because, they grow & bloom in hot summers & cold winters. Their colors ar pink to fusha. They ar about 6" tall.
For scent I like: Gardenias & Freesia. For beauty: Lipstick roses & Rueban lilies. For greenery. Varagated pitisporum, golden enonamus & Lemon leaf (for looks). For scent: Myrtle. For a filler flower: Wax, Sea foam status, Gyp & German status. If you need to know anything about plants....I am here!

I happen to fancy Hibicious... but I'm somewhat misleading u. I happen to have the MOST beautiful pink tree in my backyard. Also, I have plumeria, several colours/varities, they're somewhat picky to grow. =)

Yellow Roses are definatly my favorite flower.
Not only because a yellow rose means-
You'll Love Someone Forever,
but they are so beautiful also.
Wild honeysuckles are my favorite for smell,
I can't imagine anything smelling nicer.

I'm a fan of Tulips myself. Get it, Tulips. Never mind.
I just like them cause they are quite basic and rather popular.
My g/f loves Orchids.
The look, colours, textures, process, delicateness.

I love the yellow rose (signifies my grandmother who was my best friend) with the orange/reddish tips. They smell wonderful too!
