So would it be safe to say, that shells are not good around plants and
flowers?
Or go by trial and error. I hate to let any plants die or go in to shock from
shells.
As it is most of my flowers, bush's & trees are unhappy cause we are in a
drought, pus we have a water ban. I go out and water around midnight, so I
don't get caught and fined!! Maybe I will put some around some house plants
and see how they do.

Thanks anyway:)
