Your post reminded me of a customer that I dealt with at my old job- she came in asking for a green bush (she apparently saw a specific plant and wanted one). I felt like I was playing 20 questions trying to figure out what she wanted! There are so many different colors of green and textures of leaves, size of plant and leaves, evergreen or deciduous etc. etc. I honestly don't even remember what it ended up being!
Laura, I get that a lot at my job too. They come in asking for a boxwood. Which boxwood? English, American, or was it a holly that you just thought was a boxwood? Turns out they were azaleas sheared into little round meatballs. I have them bring a stem so that I can identify it, if we have it.
