Lily (snow)
With bright yellow flowers, the snow lily (sometimes referred to
as the dog-tooth violet), blossoms turn back upon themselves, resembling
a shooting star. It blooms first in foothill areas, and then climbs
up the mountains during springtime, reaching the higher elevations
as the snow melts and the climate grows more temperate. If you make
an appropriate offering to the gods in Icemule Trace, a small urchin
may reward you with a bouquet of snow lilies.

Morning Glory
This annual vine produces a daily crop of freshly opened flowers
during the summer months, in hues of blue, purple, pink, scarlet,
and white or multicolored. The attractive single or double trumpet-shaped
flowers make the morning glory one of the most widely grown vines.
The flowers are normally open only from dawn to midmorning, but
some of the newer varieties tend to hold their flowers open most
of the day, especially in cloudy weather. The vine's abundant leaves
are heart-shaped, sprouting off tendriled vines that will climb
on just about any support. Profusely flowering against a background
of pale green foliage, morning glories quickly form lovely hedges
or screens, or can be used as a temporary ground cover. They also
do well in hanging baskets and containers.

Mournblooms

training in cultivated gardens, with adequate support. When found
growing in the wild or raised commercially, the blooms can be woven
to wear as a coronet. It's said that any breeze through these blossoms
creates a melancholy sound, like the sad song of a woman.
