- Iris

- Lily
- Crocus
- Spanggram: Spring Flowers
- My rating: Moderate
- My score: 1 tip
At first I thought we were looking for synonyms for rain – I even found “snow” hidden in the puzzle – but fortunately this was not the case.
Drawing of an empty and spotted many words that were actually not in the game, I took a tip to get me going and didn’t look back.
The first word I got myself was daffodil – a flower that doesn’t carry the same gravitas as the others in our Spring Flowers search.
At least this is the case in the UK, where they are the lowest cost flowers you can buy and as a consequence is great for a little cheap and cheerful color, but does not really cut it if you buy flowers to send some a romantic message.
They don’t say so much ‘I love you’ as much as ‘I would rather not spend too much money on you’.
How did you do today? Tell me that in the comments below.
