When you intentionally trick a true southern gal real bad, one who has supported and encouraged you, put you forward when others didn't, and you look at her all sheepishly and try to act all friendly and she's polite enough, but you know she knows, and you don't say nothin because you hope she's just going to completely pretend you didn't do what you did, or understand that you just did it to get yourself ahead, and then you receive flowers from her, she's probably saying something other than, I love you.
Personally speaking, for someone like that, I would consider just skipping the flower part of the plan.
