I don�t have this quiz, but ...

why isn't the anagram for 1. tallstoutstemmed?

where do the letters STEEPLOWSTAINHIL come from?

Good question Yapisle!! Same number of letters. I didn't put the question as it appears in the quiz.
Actual question is:
Work out the anagram north of the border for this tall stout-stemmed plant
STEEPLOWSTAINHIL. 3 words - 4, 2 and 9 letters. I think one word may be 'thistle'
