I love roses, particularly dark red ones, though it's interesting that there are over a hundred different species being cultivated around the world.
Wow, really that's amazing. Is that your favorite flower?
I also enjoy peonies. Or water lillies. van Gogh did some beautiful work with florals. 
I love Van Gogh paintings, such a talented artist and I dont know what peonies are. I will google it.
The Impressionist era is such a beautiful time in art history.
It really is, I wish I had family members that bought a painting during that time cause today it would be worth a fortune.
I know, while the color and brushstrokes demonstrate some beautiful potential for my wall, I think the number in my bank account would be even more beautiful
