The flower was a gift for Hilly. She loved flowers, and Jess brought her the best. They were always unique. He went out of his way to find something he thought would be just for her. And the star magnolia was that kind of a flower. When she looked at the flower, it looked like it was smiling at her, pleased that she was pleased with it. She thought how flowers went out of their way to please. They loved to please, not just with their beauty, but with their personality. It was a thing that flowers did best. And this one was really making an effort.

You left me with one question: It seems Jess is also making an effort to please Hilly. Does she appreciate him as much as she appreciates the star magnolia?
With Hilly, you never know.
Only Hilly knows.
Sounds like a flower that goes above and beyond.
