........ it's his sister that does what?

The OP's sister wanted him to get rid of the daisies.

read

No mention of a sister that I can see.


It's in his second post, which you saw, because you responded
quoting from it.

Ok,
You all win. I'll keep the daisies. It wasn't actually my idea

anyway
to get rid of them but my sister's who keeps saying "You have a
lovely big garden, but you will have to do something about all

these
daisies" so now i know that what she really means is she jealous

and
i was prepared to listen to her because i know nothing about

gardens.
Thank God i found this Newsgroup.

Thanks,

John

Ah, touche, Janet. Touche. :-)
