Some nasty stuff in an arboreum

Post by redcrx »

I was touring a small garden/arboretum on Friday and while taking some nice pictures came across some ugly stuff.

Don't know about this one but it was sitting next to the one above and was ugly.

OMG!!! Did you tell them about it?

They probably don't have a clue and will (if they haven't already) spread it to every hosta they have!

OMG!!!

Nobody was around to chat about it. I sent the same pictures to their email.

Good. Hopefully they'll follow through on it too (and then clean their tools!)
