it's really nice, although i thought at first, that it was draco, who killed ginny... i'm a bit confused though, why did she kill him?

that was amazing. i knew it was a draco/ginny story, but reading it i thought it would be draco who had killed ginny, not the other way around. this is the first story i've been surprised at in a long time. really good job.

I must say- beautifully written. Wonderful imagery, brilliant juxtaposition (I love that word) of morbid death and the beauty of life, in a flower.

Great job!!

Wow. I loved the metaphor. From the title, I expected this to be about Tom Riddle, so the ending really caught me off guard. I loved the way you set it up, with the slow and brooding atmosphere. You could FEEL how dark and gloomy the room was. *_* Great job, Joya!

Amazing Joya, it completly fooled me and I loved the twists and turns it in such a small story. The imagery is amazing and I felt as though I was there, watching Ginny thinking about her flower. Great job! -Jamie

Wow. They way you wrote this it seems like a dream. I really, really liked this fic. You should write more sad stuff, because you're so good at it :D

This story, in a nutshell, was amazing. I kind of think it's your best work yet, actually - god, the entire metaphor was just so goddamnit beautiful and the story had this dark atmosphere that has this slow, lingering horror to it. It's a wonderful example of a gothic romantic style to me. I'm in awe, darling. I love the descriptions of everything. *bows at your feet*

e Joya, I liked it. So angsty and pretty and fancy words that I have never heard of (LOL :X). But honest, nice piece of work. I enjoyed it.

That was beautiful, Joya. I'd hate to have been in Ginny's shoes, but that's love, and that's war, I suppose. The emotions you conveyed were done well, and, look on the bright side, there's always fanfiction for D/G! (hugs)

Wow! You definitely poured a lot into this one, Joya. Awesome job. It made the hair on the back of my neck stand up at the analogy of the flower to Draco and Ginny's love for him. A lot of the visuals I got from this reminded me of a story I wrote a long time ago...during a similar situation of being depressed. It's good that you use this as an outlet, though. I thought it was brilliant and a wonderful way to vent the frustration you were feeling. This is right at the top of my list for the fics you've written. Excellent!

Wow, Joya !
I wish I could post my sig here (Joya´s fan.)

This is so sad, but its so beautiful. I simple love it.
poor Ginny.
In the begining, I thought it was Draco in who killed. But then, ... Ginny !

It seems so real after HBP.

It´s certainly a Magnum Opus.

You rocks !

That was terrific! The writing was outstanding. And the metaphors - and all the sadness and...

Seriously, no words can describe.

*cries*

Great work (once again)! I'm still continuing to be amazed that you can type up such a beautiful work in such a small space of time.

It was really interesting how you started off. I had no clue who was who until the end. I liked it, even though it was sad. But I still don't understand why she killed Draco.
ugahill 2005-11-03 . chapter 1
Wo...tone HEAVY. But really, really good. I love extended metaphors and this one was very nicely done. I also like how she commands everything, as the "gardener", though she doesn't want to. Harry is a flower too...does she realize inadvertently that she tends to him as well?

Very nicely done. Angst DOES lend to creativity, no matter how it hurts.
