Dear Annie: Plants repeatedly stolen from long‑time homeowner
A horticulturist says plants worth up to $200 have been taken from her perennial beds for four years, compounding stress while her husband battles lung cancer.
Dear Annie: This situation has been bothering me for four years and is much more complicated, but I’ll try to be brief. I’m a horticulturist and plant collector and have lived in my home for 38 years. I’ve put my extra time and money into my perennial flower beds, and some of the plants in my collection are worth as much as $200.
