Green wizard rudbeckia, hate them. Tall, ugly and I finally did what I wanted to do for few years now,dug out the beggar and killed it! One of my sisters hates it as well. Her problem is that her husband likes it so it remains in their yard.
I forgot forsythia and flowering currant, especially hen planted together.
Love roses but most do need to be planted with other stuff to hide their legs and I don't see the point of once flowering shrubs and those with no perfume.
I used to dislike Michaelmas daisies till we went to Picton Gardens in September and found some really lovely ones. Far too many have faded looking teeny starry flowers that look like a weed that proliferates here and then there's all that bovver with mildew.
Having seen a majestic gnnera at Keukenhof and also Beth CHatto's garden I will be planting one here - once the pond edges have been cleared of all the brambles and bullrush which brings me to iris pseudacorus - nasty thug with terraforming ambitions. Hate it for wrecking my pond in Belgium..

The Hydrangeas with the flowers that look like 70s shower caps
“It's still magic even if you know how it's done.”
Lots of plants.
Nasty smelling ones like privet.
Hybrid Tea roses [and any other "stick" form of rose.]
Phormiums, yuccas and ornamental grasses.
Viburnum tinus and other dull evergreens
So called purple shrubs and trees that are really brown like Prunus "pissardii"
Rampaging thugs, e.g. Houttoniya and certain Campanula.
Oversize "architectural" plants such as Gunnera.
Not forgetting Aucuba japonica variegata

Marigold, a real yawner of a plant.
Ceanothis

and I don't particularly like sweet peas either.
I have a Mahonia that I would hate even if it didn't send up suckers everywhere.
I'm not especially keen on Hostas either.
Begonias, too, for some reason.

I hate that black lily grass, Ophiopogon, It just looks dead to me.
Poinsettias - hate them with a vengeance. Mahonia - horrible plants.
