I asked that very question myself, and this is the answer (in part) that I recieved:

"Cuteembroidery.com is conducting testing at the present time. Flowers will be used to provide new and additional benefits to users of Cuteembroidery.com."

I'm not sure of any further details, but they seem to be a good thing to be collecting. As for how you get them, I believe that you get one each day (once every 24 hour period) that you visit the site. In addition, it appears that we can now get them from others on this site extension, in response to questions and answers. =] Anyone want to give me a flower? =D

And for that detailed answer you both get a flower from me. Care to reciprocate?

Also wondered about the "Flowers". If I could I would give you "Flowers" Cutiepie. For that matter to anyone who would like one. I hope there is a purpose to them.

I don’t know about you people, but even if there’s no reward for the flowers I’m having fun sending them to my friends on this site. So flowers to you all. Have a good day everyone.

The little flowers are fun. But I enjoy the conversation and site, even without them I would like stopping by.

I too was curious and asked about the flowers and from what I gathered they're as a token of appreciation of an answer or info thats helpful to ones question. Anyone can send one but it was to remain a mystery and the site administrator will announce the true meaning in the future???

This question surfaced again after 7 months ?!?! wow

Jrob, I’m guessing this site acquires new members every day, which means that every day there’s a new group of people wondering what the flowers are – so I’m not surprised your question has surfaced again. It will probably re-appear in another 7 months!!! Plus it proves that it’s worth leaving all the old questions there for everyone to read, I’ve discovered a wealth of info just from reading the ‘old’ questions - I suggest everyone should read them.

Sniffle, well I need more flowers, I like BIG bouquets! ROFL!!! (Totally shameless hussy, aren't I?) Naw, I'd just love to get into the top list someday, but that's likely impossible!!

To all you lovely people out there who don’t have many flowers, I feel sooo sorry for you – but don’t worry. The way I see it, IF there is a reward it won’t be for the person with the most flowers, because that just wouldn’t be fair on people who are newcomers, or just haven’t answered many questions etc. It would have to be something reasonable. So, until all is revealed, just enjoy giving and receiving the flowers. For myself I think it’s fun and just simply give flowers to everyone – and guess what – as fast as I give them away they seem to come back to me. You people are beautiful and are at the top of my list for friendliness and helpfulness. I love this site.

I'm so pleased that jrob has raised the "flower" intrigue once again, as I, being a new member, had no idea what they represented. However, I did figure out that you received one after logging in but didn't know how to hand them out. Now I do!!!
Here's a flower for you jrob for raising the subject again, hoping it turns into a posie.
