"Turd blossom" is a Texan United States term for a flower which grows from a pile of cow dung.[1][2]
The term gained fame in the United States in 2004 as a nickname that was reportedly assigned by former U.S. President George W. Bush as a term of endearment for his former chief political advisor, Karl Rove.[3] In July 2005, several newspapers declined to run two Doonesbury comic strips portraying Bush addressing Rove by this nickname.[4]
