THEY UNDERSTAND every word. Don’t think they don’t. As we gardeners walk around muttering, pondering new homes (or the compost!) for “wrong plants in the wrong place,” they’re quaking in their roots. Really. Thanks, Andre Jordan the Doodler, for the latest creation.

I have a favorite hosta I have moved 11 times in 15 years. Poor thing rallies every time and adjusts somehow!
This is hilarious, I love it! I’ve enjoyed all the cartoons so far, but somehow this one really speaks to me.
When a plant isn’t doing well or worse…it is easy to replace. When YOU change your design or want space to try a new plant….Ah, that’s when the guilt sets in….if you can find a friend to adopt, it is a little easier. But most of us have a hard time saying goodbye to a plant that we once loved and has done well.
This cartoon captures that bittersweet moment perfectly as we thank them for what they have given us, but explain it is time to move on.
I try not to let them see me pondering!
