however I am going to be meeting my partners mother for the first
time soon and she is a keen gardnener and I would like to take her a
rare plant as a gift and also learn a bit about gardnening so it
might be something we can bond over and do together. So what I'm
asking is... Does anyone know what kind of rare plant i could get for
her and will anyone be able to give me any knowledge on gardnening?
please?

Take care here.........rare may = hard to look after. Just imagine partners
mothers feelings if she accidentally let it die.

Oh dear! So much to consider! Thanks to everyone for all your advice. I know she is invited to the Chealsea flower show so I'm guessing she likes flowering plants, but as I have no idea at all about gardening I think I'm risking it quite a bit on first impressions. Maybe I should learn abit about it first..don't suppsoe anyone is willing to teach me? I'm a quick learner I promise. I just want to get it absolutely perfect the first time I meet her as I get the impression she is a hard woman to impress.
