Gripe Of The Week

This comes from something that I recently got in the mail.

People get lots of plants through the mail, you know?

They order roses, and shrubs, and perennials, and bulbs, and trees.

But, have you ever heard of mail order annuals?

I mean, that is nuts.

So, what are you gonna do, order only three?

I mean, how stupid would that look in your yard?

I got one over there and 20 feet over there, and I got.

Anyway, who orders by the mail?
