Also a rare noun?

edit

I can see some "floweries" in Google Books. Once or twice it means "flowery ornamentation", rather like frillies; in other cases it seems to be Scots for "flowers" (like Robert Burns' "mousie" for "mouse"); and sometimes it might be a place where flowers are grown, along the lines of orangery — but it's hard to distinguish any such possible sense from the one that merely means "flowers".
