Missing Words - Flowers, plants and fruit

[Tiddlywink]

This quiz takes the form of a story about a car journey with blanks to insert missing words, i.e. flower, plant or fruit. 'Mum asked Dad if he would 4, 1, 3 as there was no need to 'Rush' they had plenty of 'Thyme'.

Any kind person got any ideas for the 4,1,3,? Really stuck.

Thanks in advance.

..like a tea?

Thanks for giving me a laugh mazie:o)
(must admit it was the first thing that crossed my mind too)

[mazie]

But, if it is Tea it would have to have been 4, 1, 16

Camellia sinensis is the Tea plant :o)

It dawned on me later that the answer, i.e. the plant, had to be 4,1,3.....I've looked through all my reference books but still got nowhere...sorry Tiddlywink
