Just looking at this selection of different striped flowers brings a smile to my face. They are so pretty and colorful and such a wonderful way to add color to your garden. I absolutely love Asters, especially the purple ones!
Oh wow, so many beautiful options. I am always amazed by the many different colours and designs that you can find on roses. After seeing pictures of black roses online (I think they were actually a dark, dark red that almost looked black) I would love to grow some myself for the front of our house. The appearance is just stunning!
Wow. I never knew there are so many different kind of flowers. I used to think that all striped flowers are the same variety. This post is enlightening.
Beautiful flowers. I have to admit I knew only about Petunias before.
I have always thought flowers with striped petals were just neat. They seemed mysterious to me when I was a small child, like they were extra special because they were not just one basic solid color. I’ve always enjoyed them.
I saw a picture of a plant, the flower was a thin flat disc with stripes. Possibly (most likely) tropical. I can not find it anywhere and I am intrigued. Help!
