Named plants

Can anyone help I'm looking for any  plant named 'Linda' for a birthday present  - it doesn't have to be a rose, and I need to order it by post. 

Many thanks

a quick search on the internet has offered up two possibilities

 

you can order Sweet pea 'Linda' seeds. it is a spencer hybrid with lavender blue flowers on strong stems.

for something a little more long lasting what about Rhododendron 'Linda', a compact, evergreen plant growing to only 4-6 ft (1.2-1.5m) with rosy red flowers, but it  will need an acid soil, or it could suit a container using ericaceous compost. several nurseries offer this by mail order.

Finally I tried geraniums and found one called 'Luscious Linda'. I don't know it myself, but it seems to be hardy, with pink flowers and bronze leaves and it suits a well drained site, maybe a front of border or a container. Again it appears to be available from several nurseries.

 

hope that gives you something to start with.

Many thanks for your help - I have 4 weeks to sort this, so will let you know how I get on.

Thank you once again

Just to say a big thank you for your input to my question about named plants.

 

I opted for the Sweet Pea (for the birthday present) and also treated myself to some.

 

Once again - many thanks

(Pots galore)
