!Info for the story!
Cypress can symbolize death and mourning.
Yellow Poppy can symbolize wealth and success.
Plumeria can symbolize life and new beginnings.
Rhododendron can symbolize purity or innocence, but is also related to death and danger.
Tansy can symbolize hostility or even war but are more commonly an abortifacient (something that causes miscarriages).
Every single year, in the last week of August, the families in my hometown pray that there's no Rhododendron blossom on their doorstep.

Sunflowers and Carnations |RusAme Royal AU|
Just an AU I wanted to try out. The title is flowers because they're kinda cool and symbolizes some beautiful LGBTQ. Sunflowers represent Loyalty, Longevity, Adoration, and Happiness. The Green carnation represents my favorite thing... GAY! sorry but if you look at all my books, they all include LGBTQ relationships and stuff. Here's a quick summary: America is an autistic oldest child of Britain and France, but he's adopted like all his other siblings. Russia isn't the oldest but he's definitely the most mature, and his father, USSR, just died. Earlier America's youngest sibling suggested a sleepover with a bunch of different countries. So, America invited Russia for political reasons and his siblings invited others. Therefore, Russia invites the British-French family to his father's funeral. When something goes terribly wrong someone is terribly injured and America finds something that could lead to an uncomfortable adventure, investigation, and truth.Complete
Maze of memories
People always say every life should be cherished. That every single one of them is equally fragile and precious. Like a beautiful glass sculpture or the blossoming flowers in spring. But the thing is, everyone's definition of beautiful is different. Some people prefer roses over orchids. Some of them like sculptures of people whereas others like sculptures of animals. And so there are times when even the most beautiful sculpture gets thrown away like trash or forgotten somewhere because they found one that's prettier. The beautiful flowers that bloomed in spring will wither away and eventually become nothing but dust. There are times when a sculpture in itself could be really beautiful but a tiny flaw will make people deem it as a "mistake". The flowers that are left to wither away just because they miss a leave, or because they aren't the right size or the right colour. So you see that saying about every life being equally precious?, yeah that only counts for the "perfect" ones. Still some of these faulty sculptures and broken flowers managed to make it into the world. They would be facing the harsh reality of this world and would have to fight to survive. Some of them would unfortunately lose this fight in the end, leaving to a faraway place in hopes to find peace and quiet. Still just being able to make it this far in this harsh world is something to be proud of, as friends and family will forever remember these brave individuals who fought hard to survive until the very end.Complete
Flower Garden
A girl finds herself at home. Every day. Every night. Her father refuses to let her off the premises, for she is too fragile. Her body is so weak, so tired by the smallest of movements. She dislikes the walls of the home, so every time her father leaves for work, she'd sneak into the backyard. One day, a new neighbor moves in. He's quite peculiar, but that's why she's drawn to him. {Male x Female Reader}
Fleur
Evan always tried to hide his flowers. It was pointless, almost everyone had them, but their flowers were bright yellows and pinks that made them look like walking flower bouquets. His were dark colors - blacks, reds, browns, and purples - that made him look morbid and intimidating. And his flowers stood for the worst things too. While Jared was covered in bright pink flowers that meant heartbreak, Evan had a huge, red, zinnia on the back of his neck that meant depression, dark purple irises on his arms, legs, and face that meant bruises, and black flowers lining his wrists meaning self harm. There were almost 47 black flowers. He hated it, being marked as the kid who was supposed to fall in love with a depressed psychopath. It didn't help that his anxiety would spike at the worst possible times, causing him to trip and stutter at the worst times. • Connor didn't choose to be born with depression, a feeling that started at the back of his neck and just seemed to grow. He didn't choose to be covered in burns and bruises from his abusive father, and he didn't choose to have a bright blue flower on the palm of his hand that symbolized anxiety. He wanted to end it all - the pain, the humiliation, the fucking flower that would grow at the worst possible times. He hated how everything that happened to him would affect his soulmate. Only he deserved to feel that pain.Complete
