The camellia is native to China where it has a rich national history, particularly in the southwest region. Here, camellia flowers grow wild and during the early spring entire fields will be covered in colorful camellias. Camellias are also a highly respected flower in Japan, and is often referred to as the Japanese rose.
Generally, camellia flowers symbolize love, affection, and admiration. Camellia flowers are available in white, pink and red with each color having its own unique symbolism.

L’Iris la dea dell’arcobaleno e la dolce messaggera dell’Olimpo, era una bellissima fanciulla dalle grandi ali dorate, che al suo passaggio lasciava una scia di bellissimi colori iridescenti nel cielo, disegnando l’arcobaleno che portava buone novelle agli uomini sulla terra. (Mitologia greca)

Clade:Rosids
Order:Myrtales
Family:Myrtaceae
Genus:Melaleuca
Species:M. citrina
Synonyms: Metrosideros citrina, Callistemon lanceolatus, Callistemon citrinus
Origin: Bottlebrushes are members of the genus Melaleuca and belong to the family Myrtaceae. They are closely related to paperbark melaleucas, which also have 'bottlebrush' shaped flower spikes. Most Bottlebrushes occur in the east and south-east of Australia. Two species occur in the south-west of Western Australia and four species in New Caledonia. Bottlebrushes can be found growing from Australia's tropical north to the temperate south. They often grow in damp or wet conditions such as along creek beds or in areas which are prone to floods.
This species is probably the best known bottlebrush and is widely cultivated. The bright red flower-spikes appear in summer and autumn. Crimson Bottlebrush grows well in wet conditions and usually reaches 4 m. Plants should be lightly pruned and fertilised after flowering. Neglected or mis-shapen plants respond to hard pruning.

Flowering Lantana shrubs are found throughout the Alligator Alley Trail in Circle B Bar Reserve located in Polk County in the City of Lakeland Florida U.S.A.
The most common lantana is a non-native species, Lantana camara. It is easy to find in local nurseries and garden supply stores. That said, choosing the right lantana variety is not always so simple. The UF/IFAS Assessment of Non-Native Plants lists Lantana camara as invasive. This means UF/IFAS does not recommend it for North, Central, or South Florida. It quickly invades disturbed sites and is toxic to livestock. Gardeners should take care when choosing a lantana for the landscape.

Photographed the Big Sagebrush on one of the walking trails at the Echo Canyon Welcome Center Rest Area Westbound I-80 in Summit County Utah U.S.A.
Also known by the names Common Sagebrush, Blue/Black Sagebrush or Mountain Sagebrush, it is a shrub or small tree from the family Asteraceae. It is a coarse, hardy silvery-grey bush with inconspicuous yellow-green flowers and grows in arid sections of the western United States and Western Canada. It is the primary vegetation across vast areas of the Great Basin desert and is an indicator species for high desert (above 1,500 ft.). Like others in this genus, it has highly aromatic foliage. Unlike some others of this genus, it develops a true woody trunk and branches. In maturity the twisted trunk can become picturesque and suitable for bonsai treatment. Along rivers or in other relatively wet areas, sagebrush can grow as tall as 3 meters (10 feet), but is more typically 1-2 meters tall.

The apple blossom is a typical angiosperm flower, with petals surrounding multiple pollen-producing structures called stamens, the male reproductive organs of the flower, which are crowned with sticky pollen-collecting stigma. When fertilized by pollen, the female ovary at the base of the flower enlarges and becomes the fruit...
A flower from a bulb that can bloom in autumn, winter or spring and is in the iris family and can also be the source of saffron which is the dried stigma from the Crocus sativus which will bloom in the autumn and which is one of the most expensive spices in the world. Crocuses have symbolized 'rebirth and joy' and have also been linked to happiness and divine blessings in Asia.

Genus:Rosa
Species:R. lucieae
Binomial name
Rosa lucieae
Franch. & Rochebr. ex Crép.
Rosa lucieae (syn. Rosa wichurana), the memorial rose, is a species of rose native to eastern Asia.
Description
It is a woody, semi-evergreen shrub, with long trailing thorny branches of glossy green leaves, and single five-petalled white flowers with prominent yellow stamens in Summer; followed by small dark red hips. It can grow to 6 m (20 ft). It is named after the German botanist Max Ernst Wichura (1817–1866), with the suffix -iana.
Uses
While it is valued as a garden plant in its own right, R. lucieae is also a parent of several rose hybrids, notably 'Dorothy Perkins', 'Albéric Barbier', 'New Dawn' and 'Albertine'. Its vigorous, rambling habit makes it particularly suitable for forming an impenetrable barrier at ground level, or for scrambling up large trees. It has been introduced to the United States.

Asteraceae is a botanical family belonging to the order Asterales, one of the members of the eudicotyledons. Also known as Compositae or composites, they are one of the families with the largest number of species among Angiosperms. Many species are used in cultivation due to their biological value, and some representatives of this family are absinthe (Artemisia absinthium), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), sunflower (Helianthus), chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum sp.), Daisy (Bellis perennials), among many others. They are found in tropical, subtropical and temperate regions, vegetating in the most diverse habitats.

Many other fruits are also wonderful in their season, but the pear at its finest can be so much more exceptional in terms of its luscious texture, richness of taste, and its fragrances reminiscent of rose water, musk, and vanilla.
Pears grow in the Alcinous' orchard, in The Odyssey:
"A LARGE ORCHARD of four acres, where trees hang
their greenery on high, the pear and the
pomegranate, the apple with its glossy burden, the
sweet fig and luxuriant olive ... Pear after
pear, apple after apple, cluster on cluster of grapes,
and fig upon fig, are always coming to perfection ..."

Hibiscus coccineus - MHNT
Hibiscus coccineus, the scarlet rosemallow,[1] is a hardy Hibiscus species that looks much like Cannabis sativa (marijuana). It is also known as Texas star, brilliant hibiscus, and scarlet hibiscus.
The plant is found in swamps, marshes and ditches on the coastal plain of the Southeastern United States. It is native from Southeastern Virginia south to Florida, then west to Louisiana. Despite its common name "Texas Star Hibiscus", the plant is not found naturally in Texas. It dies back during the winter and grows from 7-10'. In addition to the scarlet flowering variety, a white flowering variety is also known as the white Texas star or lone star hibiscus.
