Oh, that's terrible. The poor man and poor Harold. Is the man going to be alright ?

Apparently the landscape thieves are cheap contractors. They just steal what they need and it cuts down on their inventory, labor is the big overhead. LOL. They tell me that they usually have a crew of two or three people that rush into a yard and start digging up designated areas. They work fast then dump it all into the back of a truck and take off. Within a day or two it is replanted somewhere. Dangest thing I ever heard of. My neighbors were so sweet, they wanted to share their plants with me but it has gotten to hot now for me to fool with that mess again and besides, I'm still bummed out.

I'm sure you know, if you replant, do it early morning, late evening. Otherwise the plants get too stressed. (not to mention yourself. lol)

Do you mean to tell me, they STEAL your stuff and SELL it to someone else? MY GOD IN HEAVEN. Visit new subdivisions, etc. If I had time, I'd help you find it. The very idea. Topes are real popular now. I want some bonsai plants and trees.
