Default pub quiz questions

My husband is compiling a quiz for his local pub and he has asked me
for some gardening questions, any questions and answers would be much
appreciated


How about
The plant Tropaolum Aduncum is named after a colour which is named
after a bird which is named after an island which is named after a dog.
What's its common name?


Answer
The Canary Flower



Some good ideas there, thanks everyone. I don't as a rule use Google
for ready done questions as you can never be sure who else is reading
them and will know the answers , however it is good for picking out the
odd question :-)

First place they'd look, IMO!
