Good Morning Britain viewers were left unimpressed during Friday's show when they claim the show pulled the 'worst ever' April Fool's Day prank.

While she was there, she was shown a 'unique plant' by greenhouse worker Matt who told her the new plant was very important and the first of its kind.

He said he hoped it could be released for sale for people to have in their gardens in a couple of years. "Oh my goodness, so people will be able to buy this plant in a few years' time?" Laura asked to which Matt replied: "They will in a couple of years' time once we have bred from this one.
