Flower power game

[MargaretR]

Try to find a bizarre description to suit a plant or tree.
e.g. -
Roses are communist
Violets are miserable
Mushrooms are agoraphobic

You can be obscure - as in -

I hope for some amusing responses.

Raspberry is a tongue twister

 

[Margaret Pilkington]

gooseberry is a grape with ideas above its station - and a fur coat!
(Sorry Margaret...I know a gooseberry isn't a flower...it was Guinness who lead me astray )

Looks like you have now cottoned on.

Yes, it took a while...but my brain is mashed right now...too much to think about...but this is a pleasant diversion.
