Looking for plants named Ann

15 years ago

My neighbor/friend just lost her mother whose name was Ann. So far I have found a Magnolia named Ann, and I have found reference to a day lily named 'Missing Anne' although so far I have not been able to locate a source (well there is one online source for $50 for a single fan. Is anyone aware of any other plants/trees/shrubs named Ann that would make a nice gift to honor this woman's mother?

I did a search and found two perennial geraniums.... one named "Anne Thomson" and the other is "Ann Folkard". I didn't come up with anything named just "Ann" though. I'm sure someone else knows lots more plant names than I do! Good luck..

Ok I just found out that although she went by Ann her real name is "Elizabeth Ann" if that gives anyone any further inspiration.
