常见对话

1. Do you love flowers? What kinds of flowers do you love"?

Certainly, I love flowers. My favorite flowers are white roses and white lilies, which are forever a classic match. I often put a huge bunch of white roses and white lilies in my living room. It can give an intimate flavor to my place.

2. Do you love planting flowers? Why or why not? 

Actually, I adore flowers, but I am not an expert at growing them. I am telling you, no matter what flowers I plant, they always end up dying, which is heartbreaking! I am really afraid of watching them die. Another reason is that I am always pretty busy with my study, so I don't have much time or energy to take good care of them

3. When do Chinese usually send flowers?

When it comes to some festivals or some special occasions, we usually send flowers as a kind of sincere blessing, like Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, so

meone's birthday to visiting a patient.

4. What kinds of flowers do Chinese usually send to each other? 

It depends on which occasion we are talking about here. If it is for Valentine's Day, roses can never go wrong; but it is for Mother’s Day, nothing would be better than a bunch of well wrapped carnations; if it is for visiting a patient, lilies would suit perfectly.

5. When was the last time you sent flowers and you received flowers? 

It was this Mother's Day, I bought a huge bunch of carnations for my mom. And I even wrote her a card saying "Mom, I love you, not for one day, it is forever!“. My mom was really moved at that moment. And even now, I can still remember the happy look written all over her face.

6. What influence do you think planting flowers has on people? 

Planting flowers can cultivate people’s temperaments and make them have a good taste for life. And when flowers are in full blossom, they are a blaze of colour and the fragrnce is intoxicating. The people who plant those flowers will get a great sense of satisfaction and achievement.

7. What special meanings do different flowers have exactly? 

Well, I am not an expert on flowers. To my knowledge, roses stand for love; lilies mean purity; carnations represent happiness and the love for moms and tulips symbolize dignity. But I think these meanings might change in different cultural backgrounds. 

8. Do Chinese love gardening?

I think so, especially elderly people. They always plant flowers on their balconies. They water them and fertilize them every day. It can spice up their lives and cultivate their temperaments.

9. Where do Chinese people usually plant flowers, in gardens or on balconies? 

Well, it depends on whether they live in houses or flats. If they live in houses, they usually have a garden to plant all sorts of flowers; but if they live in flats, they can only plant some flowers in pots on window sills or on balconies.

10. If you had a garden, what would you plant, flowers or vegetables? Why?

Could I be greedy and have them both? You know, they both have their own irreplaceable edge. Flowers are showy and the fragrance is irresistibly intoxicating. And the bright side of vegetables is that they are eatable and definitely organic, so I think I can have my cake and eat it too by planting both of them.
