not another quiz?

Personally, I'd have found it much easier if you wanted the Latin! I've managed 7 common names, no clue as to the others... not very good on common names and they differ enormously round the country, lol.
I'm still trying, got 2 more... good game!

Great idea Sticki!
I've managed twelve of them, but no idea about 1, 10, 11, 15 and 16.

Looking forward to the anwers . . .

think i will do the answers tomorrow evening??? might give bonus points for creative answers???
Bamboo this is for you ~ Felix Dies Nativitatis!

Oooh good. Just done (11) as well!

I've sent attempts at all answers. ;o)
If I come up with any new ideas before tomorrow evening, I'll send a second pm...

thanks sanbaz ~ once you get into it you'll do them all quite quickly!

Speaking swahili again, Sticki... no idea what that means either, lol! Cat - death - birth? Catfood kills at birth? Catfood commercial will make you want to strangle the writer at birth?

1. Hedge (fund!)
2. Rose or Iris
3. Phlox
4. Love-in-a-mist
5. Moneymaker (Tomato)
6. Poppy
8. Bellflower
10. Solomon's Seal
11. Heather
13. Marigold
14. London Pride
15. Oak (smoked)
16. Cosmos
17. Sunflower

Any of them tally with your answers, Sticki ... lol!!

number one gets a bonus for ingenuity!!!

Edited first comment to add some more .......

I had a feeling it'd be Latin for something - mea culpa...

must remember that one! ive looked it up! should have worked it out ~ did latin for 2 years but i can only remeber 'Caecillius in artrium est' ~ Caecillius is in the hall!!!!??? thats a lot of use to anyone isnt it!!!! now you know why i didnt do my quiz in latin!!!

I don't know any Latin, apart from that in common use in business - but plant names in Latin I do know - not cos its Latin, but just because that's what they're called, they're just names.

I love Shirley's No. 1, and have the same answers for 11, 13, 14 and 17. BUT quite different others . . .
4. Honesty
5. Thrift
6. Forget-me-not ?!
7. Foxglove
8. Canterbury bells
9. Red hot poker

Length of anwers, Sticki? Or is it more fun without?? :))

i love shirley's number one too ~ best one so far i think!!
length is fine sheila! i dont mind at all!! have to confess i have a penchant [sp???] for the creative/imaginative ones!!

Anyone got No. 15 yet - evergreen ham?

I can do nos 2, 5, and 17 lol
I'll have to try harder :o)

Sheila, your answers make much more sense than mine ..... lol !

if they make sense to me they are ok!!!

Ah, red hot poker...

2 Iris
3 Phlox (?) lol
5 Thrift
16 Milky Way
17 Sunflower

Sorry I'm not very good lol

Oh sorry 16 is wrong lol I didn't remember about it having to be a plant :D

milky way plant would be very nice!!!
you can always make the others up!!! bonus points if they make me smile!!??

Milky Way ?
Okay, if we're guessing chocolate now...

Can I just point out here that judges should be impartial, and not be accepting of bribery and corruption, you naughty people;-)))

Lol ST its been great fun, will PM my answers;0)

just sent my offers but 15 is an alternative for 16, cant think of a 15 yet.
how about a money plant for 1. ?

I did too - stuck on three of them though, but it's bedtime.

Stuck on No.16 and No.1. Just done No.15 with the help of my Crossword Solver's Dictionary . . . that was obscure Sticki! Good quiz though, thanks.
