Use this
The roses flower in summer.
表示“在某个季节”时,英语固定搭配是 in summer,不能用 on。中文“在夏天”的“在”不等于 on,这里应改成 in。

记忆联想:flower既指“花”也作动词“开花”,想象花瓣像水流(flow)般层层绽放,加-er表示动态过程。
语域:neutral 常见场景:园艺与植物生长、文学或书面描写、日常花木观察 作动词表示“开花”时,flower 属于中性正式用词,通常用于植物生长、园艺或文学性描述;在日常口语中不如 bloom 常用,但在书面或客观描述中很自然。
既可作不及物动词(开花),也可作及物动词(用花装饰)
