Re: woes
We've had plants dug up a few times in the display gardens. Interestingly,
someone dug up the large Fernleaf Peony - and sort of replanted half. A
thief with a conscience.
I'm surprised our nursery hasn't had stuff taken before. Hey, they're
already in pots. Just pick them up and go. These two beds are right by the
parking lot - the back of the parking lot - sort of out of view. But the
university doesn't like to see our stuff so, that's where we are.
