When I was a youngster (about 20), my g/f Libby and I went out on the piss one night and then went back to her parents place where she was living at the time. As we snuck down the side of the house (and I gracefully fell into the garden), we managed to make our way to the back patio which Libby's Dad had filled with hanging baskets of plants and climbers and all manner of greenery. When we were in the midst of it, Libby pipes up and says, "look at all my Dad's erotic plants".

I just about pissed myself laughing.
