    Hello,

    My girlfriend is moving into a new house and for a Christmas present I would like to plant something in her garden. She's not a keen gardener so it would have to be low maintenance and something that has meaning. Does anyone have any suggestions? I would be very grateful. Thanks
    Tom

    It would be nice to find a rose bush in your girlfriends name, As I dont know your girl friends name, it might be an idea to google roses to see if they have one. :) 02

    If she doesn't like gardening then I can think of nothing better than a large patio. IKt would mean that you accept who she is, giving her a plant to care for might be counter-productive lol.

    Plant a Rosemary bush. If she is the gaffer of the household it will thrive no matter what, or that's the folklore at least.
