Would that flower have flames??

This looks like an excellent placement for Audrey Jr.; I’m sure your mother-in-law is a woman of taste.

Audrey, Jr. certainly fits the bill, Sheik.

Stinging nettles?

Oh… I guess they don’t flower.

Who is Audrey, Jr.? Little (now grown) Audrey’s son (or daughter)?

Audry Jr. was a carnivorous plant from outer space named for the girl on whom the florist’s clerk had a crush in “The Little Shop of Horrors.” The first version (movie 1960) was low production budget, mostly unknowns, but had a small, but memorable, preformance by Jack Nicholson as a masochist visiting a dentist at the start of his career. The remake (1986) had Rick Moranis, Steve Martin, Jim Belushi, Bill Murray, John Candy and others. Bigger money and a musical. Check them both out.

Sometimes referred to as Audrey II, a reference I used in today’s Cornered (hadn’t been here yet, either everyone here figured that was used up or something though it was the first thing I thought of over there).

How could you leave out Ellen Green? She was perfect in that.

flagged that spucking fammer

I would send flowers with a card that said “Sorrow for your loss” unsigned. Do it about once a week.

Hey, what about Mother-in-law tongue? That’s a good plant to send a certain message :)

Hemlock perhaps, or Deadly Nightshade, or even a “Corpse Flower”.

She’s wrong. A little research on the flower code from Victorian times will reveal that there *is* in fact a flower that can say that. That particular flower was mentioned in “The Case of the Bizarre Bouquets” from the ‘Enola Holmes” mystery series by Nancy Springer.

Have they bred a flower that looks like a battleaxe?
