Plant Trivia Pat inspired

Plant trivia: 'Pink' originally refered to the *notching* found on the flower petals, and only later came to mean the *color* that is typical of most pinks. (The older meaning of the word continues in use for the special type of scissors known as "pinking shears.")


Looks like a big topic.
