Great idea, Stephanie.Here's a "blooming" list, if anyone needs ideas:

Just wondering - can we count books that include non-blooming plant-life in the titles, such as ivy or vine?

Sorry, no. "Flower" or flower name in the title.
All right, I've got one - Daisy Miller

We used to grow them when we lived in Pittsburgh, and they do indeed bloom only at night.

Do I get props for not repeating a flower? There are so many Rose books I had to hunt for more obscure flowers.
