3) When I was about 7 years old, my dad and I planted a lemon tree in our backyard. It started out small and I never thought it would grow because of my impatience. After school, I would go to my backyard to check on it. Nothing I tried would make it grow. Water, fresh fertilizer, Miracle-Grow and upturning soil did absolutely nothing. As the years went on, I eventually gave up.
For 2 years, I ignored it and never noticed it's rapid growth. I would go to the backyard sometimes, but would completely ignore it. It wasn't until recently that i noticed that it grew extremely tall.

Chocolate is a very versatile substance. It can used in candy, cake, dip and other things.

I like your first line it really reels you in, while the content makes you want to breach the surface. In a nutshell your grammar is superb because there is not much to look at. Other than that its the best two sentences I have ever seen.

The rose is a symbol of love. This vivid breath-taking flower is used on many occasions especially for love. I think it is also the only flower that gets more expensive because of a holiday. This holiday of course is Valentine's Day. i have seen the price of a dozen roses at $5.99 a week before Valentine's Day. Three days before the holiday, they are $14.99 and a day before, they are $19.99. On the much anticipated day, they were $25.99! I couldn't believe my eyes. I was shocked to see the $20 dollar raise of the bouquet.

The words yellow, chocolate and flower or water brought up many things for me. I have written about all these words using the what they brought to my mind. When I finished and looked them over, I saw that they all had something in common; they were all associated with something I have experienced before in my life. The bright color of yellow, the versatility of chocolate and the rose of love all brought to my mind memories of past. Yellow brought to my mind my impatience with my ungrowing lemon tree, chocolate brought my experiences with chocolate cookbooks and the rose evoked memories of expensive holidays.
