Rats ! I think I'm off the couch, but I landed on page 2

I've been stuck on this couch all day. I see a lot of interesting stuff, though.

Answer submitted. Stretching legs.

Somebody note & record this for Post of the Year, please.

Finally got to this tonight. Nice chuckle!

Nudge Wednesday!

The title should indicate where you need to look.

When you look in the right places, you should find a clear pattern. That pattern alone should lead to the name of the flower (i.e., the name itself is not embedded anywhere in the grid).

Think of some synonyms for the elements of the pattern that you (hopefully) found

It’s a groaner, but in a good way.

Off the couch.
In case there is ever an opposite theme:

OMG. First attempt at the MMM. I needed all of the hints then slapped myself on the head.

Same. Needed all the hints then slapped myself on the head.

I didn't slap my head, but I did groan.

Great minds think alike, or "don't think" alike.
In my submission I (yes, literally) said "sometimes you really have to smack your head"

I saw half the solution, thought and thought. Nope, I got nothin'
until I did figure it out.

Oops, I forgot to thank @madhatter5 for this meta too! Thank you!

Off the couch!

Off the couch. It would have been embarrassing not to get this one.
Nice one Josh.
Now to see if I can spot what’s not the rose here (Champlain Rose)

DOH!!!! I can't believe it took me this long to see it. I laughed out loud when I did.
Bouquets - generic non-species-specific ones - to Josh for a fun puzzle

Solution:

The title was meant to get you to look at the columns (i.e. not the rows) of the grid. You will find that eight such columns feature the name of an automobile, followed by the name of a country.

The answer is therefore CARNATION, a solution which I hope meets with DrTom's full approval.

Happy Fourth to all the Americans out there

Ohhhh… yup.

Not even complaining about 60A not actually being a Roman numeral (?), because as a clue it is just so dang cute.

Can someone explain 40A??

I got the “not rose” thing, and saw all the cars, but for some reason “nations” just didn’t hit me. Distracted by the cars. And I don’t even care that much about cars. I was stuck on something about parallel parking…
