I didn't say or imply that the posted question was a joke. I said I got a chuckle out of the childish response, which I did. It seemed pretty easy to just move on with no further action (by me) needed. My apology if my sense of humor offends you.
Not sure why you would think I was offended, certainly no apology needed. As I said, I was concerned that a legitimate OP might be put off by such a response but putting two and two together now, since the original post was removed along with the more obviously facetious one, I figured in hindsight that the original one was a joke too. Otherwise it would have been left in and only the second post removed. In fact the whole thread is now gone including a seriously given answer by someone else as to the plant's possible ID. This conclusion had nothing to do with what you posted, I was merely trying to explain myself.
