Is there a plant named Annie?


I am not very good with gardening and plants so I was wondering if any of you green fingered people on here know of a plant, preferably a flowering one, called Annie or at least Annie somwhere in the name.

My best friend has just lost one of her cats, Annie and I want to get her a plant in her memory especially as she was my Leila's mum. I managed to get a rose for the last cat she lost. It wasn't the cats pet name, Katie, it was called Octavia Hill. Katie's show name was Octavia so that was very apt. Unfortunately I can't seem to find a rose called Annie.

Any ideas?

I don't know of any flowers with Ann in the name, Kay - but there is a Magnolia shrub called Magnolia 'Ann" if that's any help

Thanks for that Mags. It is very pretty and I will keep it in mind if I can find nothing with Annie in it. I can't go off her show name as that was 'Sasharmey Happy Annie' so not as easy as the previous cat.
