Hi there, thanks for the site. Sorry this is slightly off topic but I made a little farming game that I thought you might like:

I’m rather jealous, I would love to get free plants. I have a lot of perennials started right now, last year I had such a good time giving the extras away to family. But I will admit that 20 of anything would be a lot to deal with. You could give away some of the ones that live.

That’s a shame the company just wastes the plants after they use them, but at least they gave them away this time!

The hollys will be great for birds and other wildlife, but watch out for the heathers - they are really invasive where I live and I fear we will be pulling up shoots of the plants we tore out last year for as long as we live here!

The orchids look to be in great shape!

I’m the same, can’t refuse plants! We’re putting in a new landscape in the front yard but first we dug out any salvageable plants…But I couldn’t just dig up a Prairie Phlox and put it in a pot–nooooooooo–I had to divide it up into 20 smaller plants! Along with the Asters, Blue Mists, Columbine, grasses, etc. we have quite a little nursery going here all of a sudden. On top of that my cousin sent about 75 Agave pups for me to grow when all this was happening! maybe we can do some trading….

Cool! You can’t say no to free plants …
