    Hydrangeas. They are soft and romantic. Their big, round heads just beg to be admired. Love the color blue they come in too...I think it's the perfect blue.
    They were my wedding flower and I just can't stop loving them.
    I am partial to lavendar (like you!), lilacs and (of course) big, round roses.
    What a gorgeous post. :)

    It's really hard to pick a favorite but I can narrow it down to 3. I love lavender... it's fragrance and wild, rich rustic beauty. Antique garden roses... the fluffy ones have the full, romantic, delicate nature of the peony but with powerful fragrance to match. And Chocolate Cosmos... their rich velvety color look fabulous with white and their fragrance at the end of the day hints at an aroma of chocolate . They are so delicate to work with though...

    tulips are my favorite...I think its because my husband gives them to me every year on Valentines Day and has given them to me since our very first V-day 6 years ago. They come to mean more and more to me as the years go by.

    My favorite flower changes all the time. I love lush flowers like peonies and dahlias. However my all time favorite is gardenia. I wore a gardenia in my hair for my wedding and wore Marc Jacobs perfume...so anytime I smell gardenias, I think of my wedding! :-)

    My favourite flowers are tulips too - they are just so delicate, and simple, yet elegant.
