What's wrong with this picture?

My kids bought me this magazine for Father's Day last Sunday and after enjoying some of the articles my wife pointed out that it contains a major flaw on the front cover. Can you pick it?

Clean fingernails??

Too easy! The magazine only deals with things relating to gardening. Obvious mistake!

Gee. That was quick Annie. I didn't get it at all until Deb pointed it out. Must be a girl thing.

Marcus - congratulations. You, like your football team, deserve the booby prize. (To th uninitiated, Marcus is a gardening eunuch).

The root ball of the pansy would never look like that...

Hi Deb! Don't you think those giant fish statues purchased by Marcus would look even cooler if they were decorated with flowers?

In Australia you celebrate Fathers' Day on the first Sunday in September? [In the US it's on the third Sunday in June.] When do you celebrate Mothers' Day?

Annie - I shall suggest it to Marcus. I think he'd appreciate that actually.

We celebrate Mother's Day on the second Sunday of May. Why then? I'm not sure.

Deb says hello.

Loretta - I think you're right as well. It does look a tad fake doesn't it?
