ReplyDeleteInteresting post Dayton! I wonder how the thief dug from the ground to get this rare plant. (If he actually did get the plant from the ground.) And I'm guessing this thief doesn't have temperature controlled mud anywhere around and maybe he doesn't even know what the plant needs it to survival and the plant will die. And why would you even steel a rare-cool-looking plant? What do you think the thief is gonna do with the plant?
