COMPETITION

A rare and exciting opportunity to name a strong competitor for 'Best Plant in Show' at Chelsea 2012 

Heavy Plant needs a catchy name to enter Chelsea with, it can be  poetic, a persons name, suggestive of its looks, its character, its colour etc.

Suggestions so far include: Dizzy, Hybridia, Black Knight

Post your suggestions below or Tweet Julia Barton@HeavyPlantJCB    


Winning name to be announced and the plant named on Sunday 20th May outside the Natural History Museum at 2pm

Prize: the first cut flower from the plant and of a box of artisan chocolates.



Note: Its botanical origin has been traced to the Polymorphia genus and is most likely to be from a motablis specie.

    Hi Julia, my suggested name for Heavy Plant is after the abolitionist and activist - Sojourner Truth.

    Morrissey - because it was made (partly) in Manchester - from Manchester skip materials.

    Poly - in memory of brilliant punk Poly Styrene of X-Ray Spex & smooth segue in poly as a prefix meaning more than one or many eg polymorphic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymorphism_(biology)
