Vent: caught tenant cutting tulips – Reddit Post

This is a vent because I am unreasonably upset about this. Over the last couple of years we’ve worked hard to beautify our property, including planting about 50 tulips in the bed next to the boulevard. I love looking out the window at the sea of colourful flowers in the spring. As everyone here knows, it’s a lot of work and very costly to create a garden from nothing and though we still have a lot to do I’m proud of the progress we’ve made.

We rent our basement suite to a young couple. This evening, I looked out the window to see the woman helping herself to a bouquet of my tulips. What would possess someone to cut someone else’s flowers? My husband deals with the tenants and is going to ask them to refrain from helping themselves to our plants but he won’t be able to speak to them until tomorrow, and until then, I am stewing.
