At least the car should smell nice.

Right, Fern.

Brings back memories. As a teen I worked in a farmers market and in the spring we sold bedding plants. Weekends after closing I had to haul the leftover plants back so they could get natural sunshine in the greenhouse for the one day a week the market stand was closed. One week I had a lot of plants left over. My car was that overloaded with plants when I drove home, and yes other people looked at me strangely when our vehicles were stopped side by side at the lights.

Hyacinth Bucket did this first.

We do that every spring.

Now comes the hard part, planting them all.

Must be a hatchback. Good for a change.

Poison Ivy has her own driver?

Ahem. WE?……

Spring has sprung. In the car.

We did this to our manager for her birthday at work once – gathered all the plants from around the floor and stuffed them all in her office, turned on a sound generator with jungle sounds, and hung some fake toucans and stuffed monkeys in the taller ones. She like it so much she kept it that way for half a day.

Are they going on a jungle cruise?

Nonsense. One can never have enough greenery. The more plants, the more oxygen!
