It has to do with good gardening sense. But what do I know? BTW, I don't think anyone is really complaining, some experienced gardeners just hate seeing beautiful, healthy plants that are just coming into their prime ripped out and replaced by smaller immature plants that will also be ripped out of the ground before they can reach full maturity. I would also like to compliment the landscapers on the use of Foxglove this year. These plants are beautiful and very showy. I love them.

I agree. I love the flowers and think that it is what makes TV great. However, when they put the new stuff in, the beauty takes a hit for a few weeks to a month before they start to come into their own. By prematurely taking the flowers at their peak out, we are just creating more weeks in the year where The Villages is just a tad less great.
