Garden puns

There are so many garden puns! I’ve picked my favourite funny gardening puns here, but you can find literally hundreds over at Punpedia.

Ants in your plants

All dressed up and nowhere to grow

Herb your enthusiasm

Don’t stop the beetroot

Your good seed for the day

Eat, drink and be rosemary

All things must grass

Cutting it vine

You parsley the test

Get a twiggle on

Seed between the lines

Your good weed for the day

Just the thicket

Peas and quiet

Don’t moss around

Never a dill moment

A day in the leaf

Flower of strength

That’s a bit mulch

Berry the hatchet

Absolutely radishing

Turnip the volume

In the eyes of the lawn

All clover the world

Just one of rose things

Soil of the century

Trowel and error

As far as the cacti can see

Turf the net

One trick peony

In on the ground flora

I beg your garden?

One more thyme
