Plant jokes


Fall in the Northeast:  They're h-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-re...

But at last the NYPD is targeting this monoculture.

But officer, the public demands them! There is no market for Interesting Fall Perennials.

Tell that to the judge, buddy. Is that kale in the back of the truck?

    Those colour combos may just have seared themselves onto my retinas!

    Need a few minutes in a darkened room to recover.

    Do you remember DC's azalea horror? All the different colored bushes, trimmed into one gigantic multicolored mess?

    These remind me of that. Shudder.

    I confess that while I have a knee jerk reaction to the instant mummification of the fall landscape, they look better on those steps than no mums.

    Jane - the DC horror that I remember was the taking of chainsaws and hedge trimmers to those same azaleas, so that they formed rigid waves around houses...

    hahaha...... pretty funny. I was just in Brooklyn last weekend for the first time, and I swear I saw that same stoop a hundred times.
