That's a camellia, isn't it?
You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Amy, I think it's a peony bush.

Because books.
Huh! I have ... no idea, but they smell LOVELY.

Peony! That's it! I couldn't remember the name. Though camellias are close: [link]

Yeah, Teppy, the blooms are very similar. Peonies are pretty common.

And Cash and Steph win! What, I don't know, but they win!

Peonies attract ants, don't they? On the bush outside, I mean. I always wondered why that was.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
The ants are a part of what helps them bloom, though I disremember exactly what they do.

I hate to even start one of these discussions, but here goes:
How do you pronounce "peony"? I've only ever heard PEE-uh-nee, but I have one friend who insists that it's pee-OH-nee.
Of course, she also pronounces "corset" as cor-SETT, which is just the weirdest damn thing.
