Fictional plants you wish were real

[Livvy]

So there's plently of fictional plants out there, and I'm sure some of you have been reading a story, or watching a film and thought, "God, what I'd give to have that in my garden!" So tell us what it was, and why you'd want it!

I might be stealing the best one here, but imagine having this sweet garden from Charlie and the Chocolate factory outside your back door!

Something I'm sure many environmentalists wish was real, although he's only part plant so dunno if I should really count him would be the titular Swamp Thing!

The counting pines from the Diskworld series. They'd worked out that the reason folk cut them down was to count the number of rings they had, so they grew their age on the side of the trunk.

Nearly wiped out overnight by the house number industry

Whomping Willow

A whomping willow for dog walkers who don't pick up their poo - now that would be an excellent idea!

I think it would be pretty cool if Ents were real - particularly in the rainforests

I like all the plant type Pokemon. Some of them are really cute.

I have no idea if this is adorable, or horrifying. What on earth is a roasted Pikachu?

A type of Pokemon.

Made one out of vegetarian sosmix, used sliced parsnips for the stripes and tail. Roasted it face down

The kids loved it

I really like the shining trees in Avatar. The whole mystical forest scene in that movie is gorgous. One can dream right?

Started watching Avatar but then gave up, not my kind of filum.

I like the Whomping Willow to make those people clean up behind their animals.

Nono, I know what Pokemon are, but I just couldn't comprehend what a roasted one was, or how you made it.

Still not sure if it's adorable or horrifying...

 

[zigs]

Bit of both

Made the kids faces light up
