What Would You Do: Fairy-tale Flower

I was watching Slipper and the Rose the other day and noticed, at random, how roses are somehow tied in and associated with many different fairy-tales and romances. Roses just seem to be THE flower to have if one is going to have a fairy-tale. Now, personally, I adore the rose. It is dramatic and delicate and vibrant and intricate. Basically, there is a reason they are thought of as the flower of romance. But, this is me, and I want to know:

Which flower would you have featured if you were the heroine within your own fairyest of fairy-tales? 
Poppies, lilacs, daisies, black-eyed susans, daffodils, blossoms, orchids?


Do tell!

Yours truly,
Cordy

P.S. I will be taking a blogging break. I don't know how long I will be away but I do know that I will be back after I learn to juggle a little better. :D (Which, hopefully, shouldn't take long. ;))

      Oh, I like this idea. For me, carnations always look like they are made from tissue paper. :)

      Don't worry, Rachel. I'll be back. :)

      Blossoms, pretty and pink! Or maybe white? Hmm, white or pink, Rachel?

    Wow, that's an interesting question! Can I answer with a tree? I think I'd choose a crepe myrtle. They're gorgeous!

      A tree? What a good idea. I hadn't even heard of a crepe myrtle but from what I saw on my Google search, they have fantastic vibrant colors! If I were to choose a tree, it would be a weeping willow. :)

    Well, if I have to choose one of the above, Lilacs. If I can choose any other flower, Water-lilies.

    Lilacs, purple and and elegant! I love Roses too, pink ones best, but only one flower is a bit boring.

      I LOVE the smell of lilacs! It's a pity they don't last longer.

      Haha, so Livia, you would simply add lilacs to a rose fairy-tale?

    Mmmm, I do love roses. Honestly, it seems no surprise that they are always "the" flower in fairytales. I think that's what I would choose as well! I might go with violets, though...violets are perfectly sweet!

      I like simple violets. (But, I would personally stick with roses too. :))

    Hmmm. I have no idea! Perhaps daisies or--oh, wait. Peonies! I love them so much. :)

    Isn't The Slipper and the Rose so sweet and lovely? I watched it for the first time awhile back and just loved it. I need to rewatch it!

      Ahh, a daisy almost gets two votes. Peonies remind me of roses; they just have heavy heads. ;)

      OH YES! I love Slipper and the Rose!! It's one of those movies where it's always time for a rewatch. :D

    This is a wonderful question Cordy,
    I like roses, but the flower I would choose would be Apple Blossoms. They are just georgeous!

      Thanks, PioneerGirl. :)
      I like how blossoms come in clusters!

    I would have to say daisies. They are so simple, but at the same time, everyone knows them.
