I started a quiz on General a long while ago and thought that we could do one on gardening.
The start of the sentence is What am I and it must be gardening/nature related.
The person who guesses correctly, starts the next question.
Very easy to start with.
What am I ........... I am a spring flower, not always yellow and Wordsworth wrote a poem about me....
