People who do stuff like that are called "rose rustlers". Ha! Personally, I am a rock rustler (I mean relocator).<br />Come down and we will make a field trip.

Lavender is easy to grow and such a fragrant and gorgeous plant. I can see a meadow of it growing in your far back yard area.Jamie Fingalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17318093175853031687noreply@blogger.com
