It might not feel like it yet, but Spring is right around the corner! Soon enough, tulips across the state will be in full bloom, and flowers will adorn almost every corner — but before there is a flower, there is a seed that must be planted. Luckily, today is Plant a Flower Day!

The day is dedicated to getting those seedlings started, and is a way to look forward to the turning of the season. Let’s create a musical bouquet by suggesting some of your favorite floral-themed tracks.

So for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs related to flowers would you like to hear?
