Another easy quick one (5 mins tops) ...
After completing the sale of the safe, Fred and Bill go to the pub for a few beers to celebrate. They are chatting for a while and Bill asks Fred if he has any children. Fred replies that he has three.
"That's nice, how old are they?" asks Bill. "Well , the product of their ages is 36," comes the reply. "That isn't enough," says Bill.
"The sum of their ages is exactly the number of beers we have drunk today," Fred adds. "Erm, that is still not enough," says Bill. "OK, the last thing is that my oldest child wears a red hat."
How old were each of Fred's children?

Got the Euphorbia and just realised that I meant Southern Magnolia and not just Magnolia (I'm old I forget things lol). But completely missed the Russian Olive.

Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is.

You seem to be concentrating solely on the first clue ... all the clues are relevant (even if they don't seem like it)

Can't be - because 6x6x6 doesn't equal 36. It equals 216.

Not even close I'm afraid ( 6 x 6 x 6 = 216 not 36)
