Now, don't get me wrong, guys. I don't sneak into strangers' yards or anything... well, I did park behind the funeral home and dig up some lily of the valley and saxifraga once, but that was an isolated incident.

I don't feel guilty one bit for harvesting seeds from commercial businesses and municipal beds, but I pushed my luck at the bank. They have some garden plots there that are offered to folks in town who don't have home gardens. It's a nice thing to do. As you can see, it is within a fenced, gated area... nice, protected, and at the end of the season.

For a month or so, I've been eyeing one bed that had Velour Blue Bronze violas, Deep Red Chinese Dianthus, and dwarf snapdragons in it. I happen to know that the violas come back pretty true from seed, and that particular bed had not been cleaned out yet, so I just had to get some!
