The casting of this spell causes a bundle of feather-light, brilliant flowers of the caster's choice to appear before him. The flowers are extremely lightweight and will catch any breeze and drift like dandelion seeds. They last only an hour, then dissolve without a trace. Wizards commonly choose a particular type of flower as a signature and call upon them to appear with this spell.
Non-elves tend to view this spell as a useless conjuration typical of elves. The Daleland elves, however, use it in courting, decoration, and celebration. In one case, a sage escaped a dragon by tossing a large bundle of carnations into the beast’s face, and fled while the beast (fortunately allergic) was sneezing.
Notes: Common to Daleland elves of the FORGOTTEN REALMS setting; uncommon for conjurers; otherwise rare.
