To find out the flower that will be 29th in the garland, we need to divide 29 by 6 (number of different flowers in the garland) and find the remainder.
29 ÷ 6 = 4 with a remainder of 5

The order of flowers is: Dafodil, Anemone, Aster, Rose, Lily, Orchid, Dafodil, Anemone, Aster, Rose, Lily, Orchid, Dafodil, Anemone, Aster, Rose, Lily, Orchid, Dafodil, Anemone, Aster, Rose, Lily, Orchid, Dafodil, Anemone, Aster, Rose, Lily, Orchid, ...
