Default Naming a character (a rebel) after a plant



"JohnsonII" wrote in message ...


Hi I'm writing a story and am in the process of trying to name my main
character. I was hopeing to name them after a plant in someway but i
wanted a to choose a plant that suits their character.

so my question was what is a plant/tree that grows in an urban
enviorment, is a very high threat to buildings in terms of damage, has
very agressive and extensive roots that develop widely before it starts
to grow above the surface and is almost impossible to get rid of?


I nominate - Attila Titchmarsh
