Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for February 11, 2016

While you’re in the dumpster, see if you can find a box of half eaten chocolates.

Aaahhh … Young Love! :D

A bouquet of poison ivy, maybe?

Susie’s in for a real treat I fear!

We love castor trees for their beautiful blooms and stately stalks, but universally hated for their innocuous castor oil. The real threat is their sinister nerve weapon of mass destruction called ricin. It’s surprising how many people complement us on them.

That’s my brother! Any wonder he’s single? And as for a box of half-eaten chocolates, that’d be no, but a half-eaten box of chocolates, sure!

Carnivorous plants!!

Don’t want her to get the wrong idea that she doesn’t still have cooties. Yuuch! That might lead to smoochies!

♫ Say it with dead flowers at my wedding, and I won’t forget to put roses on your grave ♫♪

I love Comics! I hope that I read them everyday on My I pad

I think this is quite rare – one of the few times Watterson showed anyone outside of the regular cast of characters. Cool.

Have some succulents esp. those with plump leaves, or khaki-bush, or even better, stapelias ,delivered to her ; HER being Mrs. Wormwood.

Or, check out “Black Flowers” by Chris Iisac".

@Calvin … you can’t go wrong with an Amazon Gift Card. … or, ITunes.

Probably shouldn’t get her one of these…

“What a sweet little boy you are!” She don’t know me vewy well – DO she?

He’s bloomin’ nuts for her

Or you can say he rose to the occasion

I dunno. I’ve always had a bit of a problem with the symbolism involved with the presentation to a loved one of the deracinated sex organs of some plant that will soon wither and die, their purpose unfulfilled.

Calvin is such a Romeo

A bunch of barbed wire!!

Only the very best for Susie!

Last of the big spenders?

Crunched up hearts made from paper…..?

Any one remember the flower scene in the movie version of Pink Floyd’s The Wall?

I can’t believe we didn’t dig up Audrey Jr. from Little Shop of Horrors…

Perhaps a Rafflesia. They are the biggest flower in the world, but also very stinky. I think that would work.

What a romantic …
