I struggled a bit this month to think of an irritating plant. I'm just happy that most seem to be getting through the winter alive, so to label one as irritating seems a little unfair. I also started to think that it is so easy to be disappointed that to not be looking for the positive is also not the best idea I have had this week.
However, a commitment is a commitment so here is the plant I am nominating this month: the top of the garden mahonia.
What? I hear you say, why? Well I'm less irritated by it than worried if truth be told. I don't think it looks all that perky at the moment and I am hoping that it is ok. After spending the first few years ignoring this plant I am now rather fond of it. It is one of the few plants that was in the garden when I moved in so it deserves some points for being a survivor.
So there you have it, a bit of a half-hearted irritating plant nomination. I can see it has flower buds forming so hopefully I will stop worrying about it soon.
