We all have plants we don’t like for various reasons. Like thuggish behaviour (Michaelmas daisy, montbretia ), unpleasant scents (feverfew, herb Robert ), vicious thorns (I still grow them, I just swear a lot  Big Grin )
Does anyone have a dislike for any plants without a reasonable explanation or is it just me ?  Blush . 

Cyclamen. I just don’t like cyclamen  Undecided . I have no idea why .

Leylandii, don't think I need to expand on that one. I'm sure more will come to me.

There are the weeds we all suffer from of course, groundsel, bittercress, bindweed, etc. I can't abide grape hyacinth and P won't let me grow poached egg plant, I love it. I have a love hate relationship with our blackberry, the fruit are huge and bountiful but until they get mushy are too sour for me, plus it attacks me at every opportunity and revels in drawing blood.

I don't like tulips - they're so stiff and upright and formal. ........... everything a flower shouldn't be. Big Grin

Most bedding plants or highly bred, showy flowers like some dahlias. I just find them a bit artificial looking.

Mop head hydrangeas, probably because I once had a garden full of the wretched things all inherited and they were all white!!

Weigelia, just because we had 9 in one garden, equidistant on 3 sides of a rectangular lawn. Like Veggie's tulips, just too regimented!

I don't like Michaelmas daisy either, but I love Erigeron karvinskianus - odd.

I don't like yellow flowers - I think they are so common. Boring.

I don't like any limoniums.

Lavender... can't abide by the stuff, either to look at or to smell. Yuck.
