1. What are your 5 favorite flowers?Hm, let's see... Lupine, sunflower, foxglove, chaparral currant, and dandelion. This will almost certainly change the next time I'm asked, because I really love all sorts of flowers.
2. What do you like to do with flowers?I like to leave sunflowers up for the birds to eat as they dry. I like to cut flowers and put them around the house in little jars. And I love to press flowers and save them to use in crafts.
3. Do you like native flowers, domestic flowers, or a mix of both?I like both. I've got a 1/4 acre field in which I focus on planting native flowers and shrubs. Other areas are dedicated to more traditional cottage garden plants.
4. Do you grow flowers yourself, or just look at what grows elsewhere?I try to grow all sorts of things. I don't have much shade here, though, so a lot of shade-loving plants are out of the question. I like going to botanical gardens to see the things I just can't grow for myself.
5. Do you know (any version of) the Language of Flowers?Not from memory alone, but it's fun to look up. I like seeing when people translate elaborate messages into flower language. While not truly flower language, this
tumblr post about the Death Bouquet uses flowers to convey "fuck you."
