The pom pom headed marigolds & all cistsus can be added to my list too. The creased paper-like flower heads in blousey colour combinations do nothing for me.
I find that most of the plants that we hate are to be found in multi-packs, advertised in the back of Sunday newspapers. Maybe we should treat this problem at source.

can I add cordyline australis?
Oooh! Isn't it as well we don't all like (or dislike) the same things?
Many conifers and heathers for me.
.. and begonias and gladioli..
.. and anything with bright yellow flowers (don't even like the common daffodil)
This weekend my biggest hosta is for the compost, it's 5' wide much to rampant.
All of my Tithonias, of all the thousands of seeds I sow every year, these are a disaster.,
I'm like Raisingirl, if it grows for me, I like it.?
Euphorbia - because for some strange reason certain ones struggle in my garden
Spirea - because I had to dig out about 20 mature ones when I arrived in my house
lady's mantle - because they never leave the garden even if you have only planted kind 10 years ago
Erinchea - Purple cone flower because it lives and dies too quickly
Alpine viola - as I can't get rid of it
Brambles - as they would survive the next ice age ?
Other people's groundcover
my vermicious knidds

That could go with the white hosta in forestedge's funeral parlour add my creepy black grass and we're in business
I like most plants but some I can't stand
Red hot pokers,
Golden Rod
Spanish Bluebells
Comfrey (sick of pulling it up in my garden)
Houttuynia (it stinks and spreads like wildfire)
Forgot Jap Anemones, absolute thugs.
