Re: Goodbye Garden

The gentile Ms Pam is right, Sue. My only advice would be to buy for the property; you can replace the buildings in time.

Absolutely Sue - spend the money on a house and grow what you please!
May the garden fairy bonk that creep over the head.  Ugh.

Sue,

Hateful landlords! The creeps that we had led to us buying a house
before we'd planned, or really could afford it. We, too, had gardens
that the landlord either had his "boys" mow over them, or told us to
get rid of them (the ones on the steps and walk), or stole the
produce.

I'd opt for spending money on a house rather than a wedding. A house
lasts for a long time. The wedding is over in a few hours. (Though
with luck, your marriage will last at least as long as ours- we're
going on 35 years next month. )_

Just my opinion.

Hi...
My fiance ran into our landlord as he was leaving for work (we rent
our
brownstone) and he told him we have to get rid of our garden! He said
it's
"in his way" and makes the place look messy, so now I have 5 tomato
plants
full of tomatoes, 4 cucumber vines, and 8 pepper plants (2 bell, 2
cayenne,
2 jalepeno, 3 habenero) that I am expected to toss in the garbage. He
said I
have to get rid of my two pots of flowers on the stoop too. Now he's
been
here many times since we put the garden together in May (They are all
in
pots and kept neat and tidy)and never said a word. Now everything is
full of
fruit and he says get rid of it.. I am in tears. At least I can put my
lavender and geraniums in the windowsill. Oh, he did say we could
"shove" it
all in the back alley, but the alley faces east and is full of
trees..I
don't think there's enough sun there. Where they are now faces west
with no
trees and gets 6-9hrs of direct sun and bright indirect sun the rest
of the
time. Maybe we should just elope and put all the wedding money toward
a
house where we can do what we want without worrying about garden
hating
landlords....
