*******SECRET TRADE RECEIVED*********

Well I got a bit of bad new, someone or something stole my Eliator that I just got from my secret trade. WAHHH! It's not the first time it's happend, lost Hidden Cove last year. I'm not sure if it's someone or an animal. Both plants were in my big barrel. I also lost a few hostas due to an animal digging in my smaller planters. It makes me mad!!

How awful!!! I would hate to think that a person did that, but it's not much better having an animal do it either.

How sad that people steal plants!

Makes it double bad since trade plants are special.

SeaOctopus,

If an animal did it there will be dirt thrown helter skelter all over the place. A human would be a bit more careful trying to not leave traces. Was it very messy?

OMG......How unreal if a person did it......are you for sure? Now I myself have in the past thought someone STOLE a potted hosta....but come to find out.....it was me who either don't see it right among the messy patio.. or I miss placed it....I am so sorry....boy, that really su*ks

No it wasn't messy, so i guess someone took it this time, but other times it's the animals, probably the squirrels or cats, but I doubt the raccoons. Yeah it sucks but what can I do? Is there a way to diter the animals from getting into the hostas like a skunk spray or somthing? Not sure what to do about the two legged variety.

Other than motion detector lights I can't think of anything.

Sorry but what a skunk (two legged) to take your plant!

Thanks for asking, Linda. No, not yet. Roxanne PM'd me saying my secret trader has a sick close relative in the hospital and that he or she was going to try to ship them today.

I'll send out good thoughts for the person's relative and hope they will recover soon. I wonder if you're the last one, Margery? I guess someone has to be last.
