Is the little prince's rose garden in danger ?


Dear Terry,
Thank you for reporting you were losing plants skyward. Following a
discussion with my employer The Little Prince, whose rose garden was
immortalised by the writer Antoine de Saint Exupere, I have some queries
for you. Could you please identify which species are most prone to this
behaviour.... and also record which are falling through the hole in the
ozone layer, and which appear to be growing happily in the sky. Regarding
the temperature fluctuations to those found in space : would you consider
Medit or Alpine/Rock or Perennial list plants most likely to grow in sky
gardens ?  His majesty believes astral winds have to be considered a
factor, and
only plants which although normally requiring full sun were still capable
of surviving eclipse conditions should be considered. He is also worried
about the
danger large plants might get grow sufficiently heavy in sky gardens to
fall down again,
possibly bringing astral debris with them, and is therfore inclined to lean
towards
choosing from the rock garden list.
Regarding my own garden, while we do not appear to have a similar problem
here in the west of
Ireland, plants are sometimes swept over the edge of the world where they
are sometimes mistaken for meteors. I know my royal employer has been
particularly
concerned in the past about some of the ferociously spiky phormiums which
Mayo gardeners are over-fond of using as hedging. While such projectiles
could theoretically do
considerable damage to New Zealand sky gardens, I believe his chief focus
of current concern is the interference being caused in internet satelite
links, and the confusion which a recent Magnolia stellata currently lodged
in Taurus is causing to astral readings. 
Reassurance concerning the extent of the problem and possible damage to the
royal rose garden would be much appreciated.
Yours,
Mark Speakman
By his majesty's gracious appointment
Assistant Gardener to The Little Prince
