Now here is question for all the gardening fanatics who can identify what this lovely spring flowering plant is?

I do actually know what it is but i wonder if others can identify it.




Brian

Um… Is it baby's breath?

Well no it is not that but good try Brendan

Brian

Baby's breath is white.Doesn't look like Forsythia,is it a gorse?

Good guess Alan but it is neither of those

A clue you really need to think outside the box with this plant and i guarantee you all know it.


Brian

Would it normally be called a weed Brian ?

No definitely not regarded as a weed Peter its sold in many shops

As people guess i will try and give clues
 

Brian

Parsley?

 

I'm no gardener at all……. will I know what it is? I can spot a rose and a bluebell and an oak tree…. then I get hazy!  

Michael 

One form of Jasmine?

Now… I think it is either edible, or…. we normally know it much larger?  Am I on the right lines or should I wait for the experts?

Michael

Forsythia Brian? 

My resident expert suggests Choisia Sundance

Barry

Ok next clue it is an edible plant  and you will find it in any supermarket


Brian

An even better clue i would be very surprised if a lot of you had not eaten some in the last week or so


Brian

Aha!  Easy.   POTATO     

Not a bad guess Max but the potatoe has lots of leaves and small white and sometimes purple flowers

Brian

Well it could be mustard with the yellow flowers but the leaves are wrong………….

Afraid not Peter

As you are seeing this plant as it is you would definately not normaly see it like that


Brian

Sorry, Brian.

I only know the potato from the ground downwards.   :oops:

I was going by the hint that I may have recently eaten one.

So, I'm guessing that it's not a carrot?   :roll:
