OT (sort of) - Plants with 'green' in their name

jmzms
15 years ago

I'm working on a project where I have to name things with certain colors in the name. I'm trying to theme it with plants, but I can't come up with anything green. Which is odd being that most plants actually are green!

Examples: Blue salvia, mock orange, purple heart.

Any ideas for green?

Thanks!
