Twelve flowers of the year

My granny likes nature very much. She has lived in a small village all her life. She
knows a lot about different plants. My granny says that there is a special flower for
each month of the year. She often tells me about these flowers and she also shows
them to me as they are all in her garden collection. This is what she says.
The snowdrop is the flower for January. It is as white as snow, and appears in
forests and gardens when there is still snow there. The little plant is a native flower
of Europe.
February’s flower is the primrose. Primrose can be white, yellow, red, pink, rose,
purple and orange. The flowers look like stars. The primrose is one of the earliest
spring flowers. They grow wild in some countries in Europe, and Northern
America, but you can find lots of them in china.
The flower of the month of March is the daffodil. It appears very early in spring
too. They flowers are usually yellow. The plant has long leaves and a sweet
pleasant smell. It has been a favourite flower in many gardens.
April’s flowers are daisies. You can see them everywhere in the fields, gardens
and even roadsides.
The flower for May is the hawthorn. It grows on a small tree and its blossoms are
pink, white or red. The hawthorn also has small hard fruit which looks like a little
apple. June’s flower is the honeysuckle.
July’s flowers are water lilies. You can often see them on the waters of a quite
lake. Frogs like to use their large green leaves as platforms. Some water lilies are
deep yellow in colour and some are white , pink, blue or even purple.
The flower for August is the poppy. Poppies have bright red, oranges, purple or
yellow flowers. They look like cups. They often grow wild in the mountains and in
the fields.
The morning glory, September’s flower is a climbing plant with blue or purple
flowers. Their green leaves look like small green hearts. The morning glory opens
early in the morning, but when the hot sun appears in the sky it closes. The

October’s flower is the hop. People use it to make bear. It is a climbing plant
which often decorates country houses.
The flower for November is the chrysanthemum. It is one of the oldest known
flowers. It has been grown in Japan for nearly two thousand years and is the
national flower and the emblem of that island country. This lovely flower can be
