-Freesia
Freesia is a genus of 14-16 species of flowering plants in the family Iridaceae. They are herbaceous plants which grow from a corm 1-2.5 cm diameter, which sends up a tuft of narrow leaves 10-30 cm long, and a sparsely branched stem 10-40 cm tall bearing a few leaves and a loose one-sided spike of fragrant narrowly funnel-shaped flowers. Freesias are very popular garden plants, grown for their often strongly scented flowers.

-Iris
Iris is a genus of between 200-300 species of flowering plants with showy flowers which takes its name from the Greek word for a rainbow, referring to the wide variety of flower colours found among the many species. Their habitats are considerably varied, ranging from cold regions into the grassy slopes, meadowlands, stream banks and deserts.

-Lilies
Lilies are native to the northern temperate regions. They are commonly adapted to woodland habitats and are large flowered garden plants.In general they prefer moderately acidic or lime-free soils. Many species are widely grown in the garden in temperate and sub-tropical regions. Sometimes they may also be grown as potted plants. A large number of ornamental hybrids have been developed. They can be used in herbaceous borders, woodland and shrub plantings, and as a patio plant.

-Snapdragons
Antirrhinum is a genus of plants, more commonly known as snapdragons due to a resemblance to the face of a dragon that opens and closes its mouth when properly squeezed (thus the 'snap'). Snapdragons are annual plants and do best in full or partial sun. They are available in a range of heights: dwarf (6-8 inches), medium (15-30 inches) and tall (30-48 inches). Plant them in a soil that drains well to prevent the roots from rotting.

-Roses
The flowers of most species roses have five petals divided into two distinct lobes and are usually white or pink, though in a few species yellow or red. Beneath the petals are five sepals. These may be long enough to be visible when viewed from above and appear as green points alternating with the rounded petals. Rose prickles are typically sickle-shaped hooks, which aid the rose in hanging onto other vegetation when growing over it. Roses thrive in temperate climates, though certain species and cultivars can flourish in sub-tropical and even tropical climates, especially when grafted onto appropriate root-stock.

-Sunflowers
The sunflower is an annual plant native to the Americas in the family Asteraceae, with a large flower head. The stem of the flower can grow up to 3 meters tall, with the flower head reaching 30 cm in diameter. What is usually called the flower is actually a head of numerous flowers crowded together.
