Flowers by Picture

Right. I somehow had a cornstalk growing in my flowerbed. I don't grow corn nor do I know anyone who does. I wouldn't call corn a weed, but in that case, it was.

Do you or your neighbors have a bird feeder? Birds and squirrels spread the seeds around.

only got 7 but I got the Hibiscus, the least guessed

actually, the dahlia is the least guessed

Stats change.

Only missed Hydrangea and Dahlia, but I have seen both before. And a dandelion is a wild flower that just happens to be attached to a weed. Not to be scientific or anything.

I kept putting lilly for some reason, I hate myself sometimes. :P

Missed cherry, lavender and marigold. --- However I am glad the quiz was as simple as it was. I was afraid of it for a while because I don't really know flowers, let alone in English! - Good one :)

Some of these are rather difficult if your native language isn't English. Maybe accept lion's tooth for dandelion?

Yeah, but do you know that the french name is rather "pissenlit" than" Dent-de-lion" ? No, I won't explain the meaning of the former name ^^.

Dandelions are supposed to be diuretics and good for kidney ailments, so it makes perfect sense. :)

I do believe it means "pee in the sun"

Apparently the english language has pissabed and piss-the-bed for dandelion, not sure how prevalent it still is. Wasnt aware french had the word piss(er). And I wanted to say we (dutch) have the word pissebed meaning pillbug, but I found out a century ago we used, like the english and french, that word for dandelion aswell, and apparently it might still be used in some southern dialects.

It is called that for its diuretic properties.

Btw it is commonly called horseflower here

Just my two (euro-)cents, but Orchid might be a bit too general. This is a phalaenopsis (or moth orchid if you prefer).

There's always one that has to show off (in a roundabout way)

Lovely quiz :)

Enjoyed the quiz, but it made me sneeze like crazy.

Lol

You must have allergic rhinitis then :)

Reminded me of a beautiful poem I once heard: Roses are red, violets are blue. Some poems rhyme, but this one doesn't.

Ooh, that reminds me of my favorite haiku!

Haikus are easy

But sometimes they don't make sense

Refrigerator

...because it actually contains in its lines the actual whole point of the haiku! It's brilliant, really.

The marigold sure looks like a mum to me. Hmm.

Mums have a lot more petals, all the way to the center, and the petals are usually more teardrop-shaped with smooth edges (yes, I know there are exceptions, like spider mums). Marigolds have that wavy look to their petals, and are a more consistent width throughout. The leaves in the background are definitely distinctively marigold leaves too--they kind of have a fern-like appearance. (I worked in a flower shop :D).

There is aa flower called mum? Huh haha

In the US it's short for chrysanthemum.

11/15

Where is the Primrose??? There are so many Hunger Games Fans :3

An odd world we live in in that many people only know flowers through movies

could we have sakura for cherry blossom?

It worked for me. Maybe Quizmaster changed it after your comment.

Got all 20, mostly thanks to helping my mom in the garden when I was younger. Spent the last 2 minutes just trying to remember dahlia.

I'm with you Soph. If you want hard, try my quiz Plants of New Zealand.

Along with birds and fish, maybe the toughest quiz topic when English is not your first language, no matter how well you speak it.

I am not sure why this puzzle is considered "hard." I got all but one the first time. The one I missed was dandelion. The way the picture was sized it looked like a zinnia to my.

But hydrangea is much, much more commonly used to refer to such a flower in English.

I missed half of them, and my grandmother was a gardener and grew AT LEAST three of the things I missed...

great quiz! idk what iam typing .....just wanted to try since i reached level 15! yay lol

The Marigold depicted in your quiz is definitely not a Marigold. Marigolds are multi-petaled and the leaves are completely different. The picture shown looks more like an African Daisy.

Proud to have got hibiscus, the national flower of my country 😊

I think a yellow box isn’t in order
