The one-line rose

@}->-- is a rose lying on its side: @ is the bloom, } the sepals, - the stem and > a thorn or leaf. Longer stems and more leaves make it more elegant:

@}->--
@}-;-'---
@}->--->---
--<-<-<@

The last one points the other way. People send these in texts and emails because they work in any font and on any phone.

Tulips, daisies and borders

  _  _  _      (@)    \|/
 (_)(_)(_)    \\|//   -o-
  |  |  |      |||    /|\
  |  |  |      |||

Tulips are rounded tops on straight stems, a daisy is (@) or -o- with petals around it, and \|/ on its own reads as a small sprouting plant. Repeating a small flower makes a border for a message or a card:

*.*.*.@}->--.*.*.*.@}->--.*.*.*

Converting a flower photo

Flowers are colourful, and colour is not brightness: a red rose and its green leaves can come out the same grey. For a photo, choose a single bloom against a plain sky or wall, raise Contrast, and try the Original RGB option to keep the petal colour in the PNG or HTML export. For a cleaner outline of petals, switch on Sobel Edge Detection.
