Default The Villages changing plants

I saw the villages changed out the plants. Does anyone know if you can get some of those plants and re use them?

Just ask contractors yanking them out? Might be little dangerous along MB or BV? I’d try around rec center?

I am dumbfounded they change them out in January, they get frozen out most time then they have to replant the sprouts. When they had full bloomed and pretty flowers. ( guess that’s why you’re asking about uprooted ones?) You would think they would move schedule up month would be less changes of freeze out? But that’s way above my pay grade. Besides they don’t take suggestion to heart IMO. Ok let’s here it…

Correct, just ask. Wifey has, on occasion, obtained very nice flowers they were going to discard. But yes, please be safe; don't be stopping in the middle of a roundabout to inquire.

I would ask if you see them. Seems like a waste to toss them.

They do keep The Villages very pretty!
