Obviously not a major issue here, but three beautiful fern plants were stolen from my front yard several months ago. House on Lausanne Avenue.

Twinkle at the Methodist Hospital System Gardens.
(It’s not a big deal but a theft is a theft so I was encouraged to post it here.)
Marigolds stolen from my MHS garden plot. Last seen Monday 4/26 after 6 p.m.. I visited the garden the following day Tuesday 4/27 around 7 p.m. and the row of marigolds was missing. Noticed one foot print on adjacent row. Nothing else damaged or taken (from personal plot or the rest of the garden plots, from what I can tell). Value = nominal.

I had 15 carpet lilies stolen in Euless. I had just planted them this year and was looking forward to them multiplying and providing color in my garden.
