Have you ever given a plant a name?

There is a Geranium on the market called Sylvia's Surprise. The lady in question is a friend of ours, however she did not name the plant. That was done by the company selling the plant.
I have bred a Geum which hopefully will make it in to commerce. Whether I get to name it or not though...........

I have never done this before, I just talk a lot to myself when I am in my garden.

Wow i can see there's a lot of creative minds at work! I haven't gotten around to naming any of my plants yet but who know what the future holds.

Well, I used to live in Somerset, 45 years ago or so, somewhat before the Interweb thing.

The only plant I've ever named was a huge aloe plant that I named Vera.
After the plant got too huge to move the pot, I gave it a name.
I just felt that a huge potted plant that weighs as much as a child should have a name.
