My birthday is coming up, and I was asked what my favorite plant is.
My favorite plants have to meet a few important criteria. They must come back on their own, because I can be a lazy gardener. Insects and diseases must be rare, so there will be no need to spray. I like plants that can grow in the water along the shoreline of my water garden, or in the hot, dry side yard, or indoors. They must have big, showy flowers to please the eyes and fragrance to please the nose; tasty would be nice; and if I could get them to make a noise, I would like that, too.
