This may not be the correct forum, and I apologize; I'm not looking for a trade. I would just like a list of plants with a common
name that could be associated with Valentines day. Being new to gardening, I have enjoyed being in seed swaps and receiving flower seeds that I have never heard of before. I'm participating in a valentines swap for which I will have to purchase some seeds. What a better time then now to find some with names that sound like a good choice for valentines. Can you help add to my list?

Thanks for all of your input. I have been searching seed companies for several of the selections y'all have listed and decided on Kiss-Me-Over-The-Garden-Gate and Love-Lies-Bleeding from Johnny's Select Seeds. I just hope they can fill my order before the end of the month.
