Anyone like forum games :lol: ? On some forums I have noticed a lot of id this, fish, turtle, gun, and so on. So as I have no life :ugeek: and get bored a lot :cry: , i figured I'd start one here. 8-)

Generally the rules for such games are someone posts a picture, you identify the picture, you get to post a picture.

Hmm... Plants are kinnda hard to id.. maybe we should include some kind of hint or have a time limit, feel free to post ideas if you think this sounds like fun. I guess that's kind of an off topic plant for aquaponics too.

Here is my hint: Ornimental flower, Famous for looking like Cannabis, also Starts with a C.

Or if you think this is a really stupid idea just post "Kill with fire".. lol

Erythroxylum something? Nah, Is that what bay leaves look like on a plant?

It's really hard to ID without seeing new growth patterns or flowers >_<

OK a hint… the flower smells like a corpse. When mine first bloomed I had buzzards in the yard.

jcx
03-26-2011, 04:02 PM
Haha. I was going to guess corpse flower. I can't find a species that matches the leaves.

Amorphophallus (Idunnoicus)

Man, I got a friend with neighbors that complain about the smell of his garden. I bet if he planted a few of them they would never wine about the usual smell again.

Cornus canadensis?

No

Once widespread in eastern North America, overharvesting has made it a rarity.

95% of commercial production is in Wisconsin.

I don't think he's coming back :lol: :lol: but, I'm fairly certain you are correct because it is one of the first images that comes up when I search it (that exact one). So, YOU'RE TURN AGAIN!
