WHATS MY NAME? #HelpMeNameMyPlant #whatsmyname #plantnam...
Can we get another member to make it 60 or more members of #HelpMeNameMyPlant ? I hope so !!!
Another #plantnamesunday for me as I demand #HelpMeNameMyPlant (over 50 members!) as created by @Corinne.
So hereβs a new plant with a definite Australia outlook! Itβs a Kangaroo Paw and is the State Emblem for Western Australia (the largest state and no guesses as to where it is located on the continent LOL). This cultivator is called Bush Fire (what we call Wild Fires over in the land Down Under) and is beauty, maaaaate!
So I am thinking a kangaroo theme or if that is too much of a challenge then maybe to do with the color and fire?
I love the scene in Crocodile Dundee when Mick Dundee has a kangaroo shooting back! Itβs a climatic moment of the tables being turned and I love it and the music that goes with it (do yourself a favor and watch this movie at least once as it was the biggest independent movie in the world at the time, even if it hasnβt aged that well, I guess). But there are some beautiful scenes and the romance between the main actors was real as they married (although now divorced) and had a son. And it does have some classsic Aussie human and some classic lines.
I think @Boymom-plantmom actually has a kangaroo paw if my memory serves me well. And if not, I am blaming βlong Covidβ and just βBidenβ my time so I can come up Trumps LOL (wow never a dull moment in American politics !?!)
Anyway, what shall I call this magnificent example for a Kangaroo Paw. Any ideas?

@Peachyhoyas Thanks Victoria, if you look back at the early #HelpMeNameMyPlant it kind of happened as a result of a few great names for two of my plants Pinky Gossamer (a VFT) and Merida (a Nepenthes) and @Corinne started the group which has been quite popular
@UltraKoreanfir Wow Melisse, I love the name and right out of the box too !
How was the Kindle ebook, any good in your opinion?

@CourtlyKingfern Wow Evelyn you definitely applied the torch with that suggestion. Thatβs a searing suggestion but I like your contribution.
Do I understand correctly that you have finally become a CP convert ?!? Let me know if I can help at all as I think you and your grandkids for instance will love them

@Ninabeena Nina, I am sensing a true crime novel title here and I never thought my kangaroo π¦ paw had such a violent streakβ¦ I was hopping π¦, I mean hoping for something a little less like a Arnie or Van Damme action film title
But I like the whole violence of the name if not for my sweet little kangaroo paw

@Boymom-plantmom Iβm into astrology for instance Pluto went into Aquarius for the first time in 248 years on 20 January! Gemini βοΈ would suggest I need to find another kangaroo π¦ paw so I can have twins π―
@LaSiguanaba Are you a a fan of Red Dwarf!?! Thatβs a classic British comedy series that has stood the test of time and I love it π₯° (hey itβs comedy π) but I am not sure my kangaroo paw has a comedy aspect? But Super Nova is a great name and has a power and majesty to it
@Boymom-plantmom @CourtlyKingfern @LaSiguanaba @Ninabeena @UltraKoreanfir @Peachyhoyas @Corinne
So hereβs the scene from Crocodile π Dundee I mentioned as it is probably one of the best known Aussie movies and the name Michael Dundee mentions is from a. Famous Australian kids Tv show about a kangaroo (like Lassie, Flicka or Flipper only a kangaroo that can help rescue people etc )
https://youtu.be/yTS-YFaTeds?si=E3WbPAX6Sd7yVzkx
Skippy the Bush Kangaroo
π¦

And a comedy take off π

@Seymour it has been year & years since I watched the Dundee movie, or Flipper but itβs funny how they made the kangaroo into a Flipper movie as I recall. Loved those shows.. β€οΈπ€
@Seymour lol it just popped into my head. If you donβt use it, itβs going to be the name of my next plant π
@Seymour Yes, I am definitely a Red Dwarf fan tho I havenβt watched it in years. I remember finding it hilarious!!! π€£
@PleaseLeaf Hahaha Bri, I love that movie too, even if it presented itself as a kids movie (bit of false advertising). Thoroughly enjoyed it and have no problem watching it whenever it pops up.
@PleaseLeaf Thanks Bri and everyone
I had to go with Kangaroo Jack π¦ not least of all that I like the movie as it is crazy !?! And many of the actors in it ended up being successful eg Michael Shannon!
I mean it has a Canadian playing the Aussie girl in it and a βrappingβ Kangaroo π¦
So not the kids movie it appeared to be so Iβm sure many unhappy parents took their kids only to find adult themes
Plus its portrayal of Australia is hysterical π but pure entertainment
Given itβs a name for a Kangaroo Paw, I had to have at least one Kangaroo Jack but next time I might go with a more serious name so thanks for the suggestions

Thanks for all your comments and suggestions, I just caved into a more comedic name this time. Imagine getting a Canadian synchronized swimmer to play the Aussie outback girl and manage to get Christopher Walken and Michael Shannon amongst others to be in the film. Itβs so bad, itβs great π π π And the lead actors are great comics

That movie cast sounds bonkers so I had to look it up but you weren't kidding, @Seymour! Love a bad good film so I might check it out sometime.
@ballondusoleil I think it was aimed at the teenager boys demographic but the advertising fooled many a parent into thinking it was a lovely kids movie about a talking kangaroo π¦ Itβs more of a a silly comedy π involving adult themes and was meant to be something else entirely. But it is really βbadβ as in it should have been straight to video so you have been warned π
