Flower Quiz

OMG this is going to take me ages, first are they latin names or the common names for plants? or have we got to work it out ourselves lol

Haha DD, no just the common names. I should have said the answers are a mix of flowers, vegetables and herbs. Hope that helps and it doesnt drive you bonkers!

Have had to copy this into Word to think about later! Thank you - quite a challenge.

You're welcome Stera. I had fun doing it, even though I didnt figure them all out. Ive got the answers now though lol - makes it all much easier! Just think cryptic!

I have just done a cryptic crossword lol

This is going to take for ever !

do we get how many letters at least ?

got 28

Good fun Poppy . . . something for a rainy day (tomorrow probably). Only got 14 or 15 answers so far, but will enjoy puzzling it out. Thanks!

Hi Paul - Do you want to check out your answers yet?, thats not bad going is it.
Cinders - it wont take you long, once you get going.
Sheila - I think youre wise, I can see you sitting out in your garden in your special sheet with your pen in hand..lol Much better than trying to figure them out with a glass of wine in hand... ooooh brain ache!

3 gaps (didn't take your advice . . . influenced by alcohol) x PM imminent!

I am stuck on a few, it is a good quiz though :-))

Sorry Meadow - I forgot it was your curry night - Im sure you'll cope!

Keep going Mavis - let me know if you need any clues.
It'll have to be tomorrow though, my eyes keep telling me to go to bed! - Ive gone a bit cross-eyed lol!

Oh dear lol I can answer about 3 ! :/ I'll have to think hard. I'm not used to doing that these days lol

Same here Poppylover I am off to bed as well :-))

Got over 20 so far.......wish I had known it was vegetables and herbs before , was just going on flowers, good quiz Poppy.

~Glad you're enjoying it DD. Sorry I should have said before, all the answers are straightforward everyday common names of flowers, vegetables and herbs. Now thats far more clues than I was given but hope it adds to your enjoyment. Paul you dont get number of letters!! That would make it far too easy!
Sheilabub is leading so far, she got 25 out of 30. Well done Sheila.

just found your blog thanks for making up the quiz
have only got 8 so far so will have to get the thinking cap on it is going to take me some time !!!!!!!!!!! :o))

Great idea. Only come up with 3 so far. They're really cryptic will have to get my thinking cap on.

Let me know when you want the answers!

enjoying this :-)) will take a while lol but great fun thanks

Poppy - What I want to know is are you awarding prizes???!!!

my grateful thanks ...lol

Glad youve had a bit of fun with this everyone. If there are any you're still stuck on , - Ive just put the answers on in a separate blog. Thanks for your lovely comments.

Brilliant PoppyL - that was very clever quiz - it all becomes clear now - I may even try one myself ! Parsnip was a classic!! but they all were

;-))) Paul. Cant claim the credit for thinking the quiz up all by myself. It was given to me on a recent coach trip visit to Hampton Court. It perked up the journey on the way home. I enjoyed it, Im glad you did too. I think the organiser mentioned that she gleaned quite alot from the internet, so maybe that's a good start for constructing your own quiz. I look forward to doing your quiz Paul.
