Asparagus used to be called "Sparrow Grass" until the posh people started eating it

I saw a Jamaican guy, on Gardener's World, growing this in his allotment. He cooked the leaves up with some other veg and said it was delicious. Have you eaten it or does Tetters grow it as an ornamental?

A friend of mine asked what the name of this rose was and when I told her she became shocked and indignant !! "Oh no, certainly not !! " she said. "No one would name a beautiful flower a name like that !!" .
Can you guess what it's called ?

No. She is apt to put salt on Ziggy's dinner for bringing it up thoough. Unfortunate name for modern times.
Tetters will probably figure it out.

I was thinking, at the time that my friend freaked out about the name of the rose, she should get her mind out of the gutter !!
