Next to Roses and Peonies,  these fresh spring beauties are a new favorite this season: 
Garden Roses and Ranunculus
I mentioned this to my husband and he went out and bought Ranunculus bulbs the same day to plant in our yard! #396,000,001 reasons why I love him;) 
What is your favorite bloom?

    Love these flowers. I am all about Tulips and Gerber Daisies though. I just don’t think you can look at either of those flowers and not be happy!

  3. Liz says:

    Aren’t those garden roses? I LOVE garden roses and they were ALMOST my wedding bouquet, but the shipment didn’t come in that week 🙁

    I also LOVE ranunculus, parrot tulips, peonies, hydrangeas… Oh the list goes on and on!

  4. That’s so sweet! I’ve been filling my vases with tulips as of late. Fresh flowers add the perfect dose of pretty to the day!

  5. Jami says:

    I love tulips but these are gorgeous! I love how they used the burlap in the first picture, so sweet.

  6. RosaLovesDC says:

    I love tulips and pretty much any pink or yellow flower.

  7. these are beautiful!!!!! i’ve been rambling on my blog about how much I want to plant flowers! i JUST might need to find a place to plant these now! hehe

  8. Ranunculus is my favorite and simple though they are, I can’t get enough of bright gerber daisies. This weekend my husband and I are heading out to get window boxes, soil, flowers and some herbs so we can have a little “garden.” I’m hoping to get some ranunculus, but I don’t know how they’ll do in a box – we shall see!

    how sweet!! I love having fresh flowers in the house, but they are just SO SO expensive!! (plus, they die within a couple of days) But having them in your garden is even more wonderful 🙂

  10. Desiree says:

    Oh they are so pretty – & your husband is too sweet 🙂

  11. Alessia says:

    these flowers are really beautiful!! now I’m loving them me too 😉

  12. ASHLEY says:

    I’m loving these flowers too. Your husband is freaking amazing!! I say things like that to my husband and I’m pretty sure he never hears them!

  13. aw such a sweet hubby – and LOVE these flowers! absolutely gorgeous!!!

  14. aw such a sweet hubby – and LOVE these flowers! absolutely gorgeous!!!

  15. aw such a sweet hubby – and LOVE these flowers! absolutely gorgeous!!!

  16. s a m says:

    you and I share the same taste in flowers. There is something about the perfectly round buds that open up in to little ruffles, and then become big and bloomed-out and almost gaudy before the petals fall away. I love them in every stage.

  17. peonies are my absolute fave!

  18. Lori says:

    Pretty!And so very sweet of your hubby 🙂

  19. Krista says:

    I love Ranunculus’s too! I tried to grow them from bulbs also but it didn’t work out. Better luck to you!

    Right now I’m sticking with pansies, such vibrant color but easy to maintain 😉

  20. Martina says:

    Soooooo love Ranunculus – your hubby’s a real darling! Apart from them i love hydrangea, lillies, roses, lavender, and wildflowers of all kinds. Flowers are the icing on the cake called life 😉

  21. Michaela says:

    SO beautiful! One of my favorite flowers, too! Hope you’re having a great day, friend (:

  22. thais. says:

    that’s one sweet husband and these ranunculus are just too pretty. I am also a big fan 😉
    have just entered the giveaway and now crossing my fingers!

  23. I love garden roses so much! I wanted peonies in my wedding bouquet but it was in August so they were out of season. My florist suggested using garden roses and I decided that I loved them even more than peonies. Mine were ivory and they were absolutely gorgeous!

    I’m hosting a necklace giveaway on my blog if you’re interested!

  24. Anna Elder says:

    im going to have to see if rananculus can grow here. i’m planting peonies this year. dahlias are one of my faves! but they are annuals and i’m a much bigger fan of perennials! i love the garden/tea roses. so pretty!

  25. modern jane says:

    Beautiful.. also a favorite of mine! Along with peonies and simplicity of tulips:)

  26. these are pretty colors. It s been all gray on my side of the world and these are bringing some sunshine! Thx

  27. How is it that you and I were precisely on the same wavelength when it came to posts today? We’ve got flowers on the brain. My favorite? Lilacs, though I have a bunch of rananculus in my living room too.

  28. ranunculus are one of my favorite flowers! I love all the layers!

  29. Me too!!! they’re so beautiful

  30. Peonies are one of my favorites too!

  31. Peonies are one of my favorites too!

  32. Peonies are one of my favorites too!

  34. the petals on these flowers are just too pretty and lush! love them 🙂

  35. If nothing else, I absolutely adore those flowers for their ridiculously fun name: renunculus…seriously, say that name and see if you don’t smile! (c:

  36. simplyvonne says:

  37. Megan says:

  39. So perfect… I was actually planning to have peonies bouquet at my wedding (now postponed..) and the wedding planner suggested ranunculus cause in Brazil there are no peonies. I did some research at the time and loved them too, each of them have such interesting and beautiful shape!

    Hugs & kisses from Rio!

  47. Amma Brown says:

    tulips, tulips, tulips and sometimes lilies. Did you know tulips continue to grow after cut. At my best friends wedding our bouquets had tulips and they visably grew a quarter inch during the night. crazy.

  48. S and O says:

  49. LOVE! I just got some pink garden roses yesterday and can’t stop looking at them : )

  50. Tang says:

    I really love dahlias and orchids! These are amazing though. I love flowers.

  51. I’ve recently discovered garden roses as a new favorite for when peonies are out of season! I actually just got back from the LA Flower Mart – theres something so inspiring about being surrounded by gorgeous flowers. Happy rest of your weekend, Anna! xo

  52. Megan V says:

    These are seriously gorge!
    Dahlia’s are my favorite 🙂 I even named my cat Dahlia, and created the wallflowers inspired by Dahlias (with a twist). 😀

    Now that you’ve shown me these photos I am pretty sure these flowers are my new 2nd fave!!!!
