PERHAPS???!!! PERHAPS???!! Is there any doubt?
A portion of my garden is *outside* my fenceline (about 70' long, 7' deep).
All too often I have whole branches broken off of even roses where someone
has tried to help themself to a flower and broken a branch in the process.
When I was growing up in a middle-class neighborhood in California, we were
taught not to even walk on other people's LAWN.
We actually have some *charming* neighbors (mother and adolescent daughter)
that moved in recently that bodly came down the sidewalk past another
neighbor with scissors and a cup and annouced to this neighbor that they
were going "flower stealing," as if the whole thing were a joke. Great mom
-- what is she teaching her child?
Or what about the real estate agent up feels free to pound their "house for
sale, this way" into my front garden bed???
I know it's a useless battle and a waste of energy to get so angry, as you
mentioned earlier Gene, but to me it is as much as stealing as coming into
my house and taking things.
WHEW!
