Long ago, we had a fun thread (well, I thought so) about animal verbs. Today I have been thinking about vegetal verbs and wondering what we can all think of. Here are a few for a start: to root around in the refrigerator to tree a cat to stick out like a sore thumb |

I don't carrot all.  Couldn't resist. Of course, we talk about people (mostly women) flowering. |

Well you have been breaking quite a few rules since you are not sticking only to verbs, but you have been doing so with gusto, so far from me to criticise you. I must admit that I would never have thought of something like "spruce yourself up".  I wouldn't want this thread to vegetate. |

Why limit anyporters creative flow by sticking only to verbs?
I woodn't want to ambush the thread. I mint no harm to the tall poppies
I am just a sucker for a punnet and impatiens.
Lettuce berry it there
