OT: Neighbor wants to cut my flowers for church

[demeat]

Dukes, I have some beautiful lime light hydrangeas on the side of my home. I received this text from my neighbor. I have not responded. How should demeat handle this??

"Demeat, I have to do flowers for church tomorrow Would you allow me to cut a few of your hydrangea blooms? I promise I won't scalp them"

Please advise

Sounds like he's literally trying to do the Lourdes work IMO

Is it too open ended? Will I come home to just green plants and no blooms?

So, how much will the church be donating to demeat?

Maybe give him a specific # of blooms.

Unless you were having to trim them yourself anyways... then by all means have at it neighbor.

Does she have a daughter that you can negotiate with?

I don't trim them. I think the dead ones I remove. But I have never done it. They have huge beautiful blooms. I planted them for my yard to look nice. It is the end of the season so my really white blooms will last for a month or so then be done for the year until next spring.

 

[Fillup Marschell]

Nope

I am really annoyed that people make awkward requests like that.

Just found this on GOOGLE.

Limelight hydrangeas only bloom on new wood, so any heavy pruning or cutting back must be done in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges, since pruning at any other time of the year will disrupt their normally abundant flower display.

Should I cite them being young immature plants and not ready for a mid season cut?

You should cite them as, "G*Y lady and quit being a cheapskate."

A blowie is a blowie no matter how you cut it.

That should be yore response. Post back what she says please.

He will be hated through out the neighborhood. Oulde women like to talk about perceived wrongs everywhere they go. Salon, Grocery Store, Restaurants. It is like passive aggressive takes hold of there lives.

She wants 6 blooms. I only have 5 of these majestic plants. So that is at least one from each and she will only take the best ones leaving me with the ugly ones. Why must she ask me in Friday when already rustled. But because Greg is the man I may just tell Her, sure.
