So it's okay if the Golden Bar Maiden Grass has wild orgies in your backyard, just no asexual propagation?!

Camouflage!Frog looks utterly content where he is. What a cutie!

I'm hoping for wild orgies from the Maiden Grass because I've planted it in the front bed, also know as the graveyard, where plants go to die!

Excellent toad pic spam! Lovely lawn furniture.

I have no idea what asexual propagation is, unless as it gets larger and clumps, you then split the roots, but hey, it's your plant...?????

Asexual propagation is multiplication without passing through the seed cycle. It is accomplished through cuttings, layering, budding and grafting. And yeah, it's my plant, and if I want it to be fruitful and multiply by splitting it up, then I'm gonna do it!

Gray Tree Frog was a cutie. He's gone now... just moved on, we hope.

The Garden Police see you laughing at their rules, and they are making a note of it. ;-)

And what an adorable little frog! Or perhaps it's a toad, since it's out in a dry area--can never keep them straight. But very cute, regardless, and what perfect camouflage! He really does look like a moss-covered stone. :D

I scoff at the Garden Police! How can they fault me for unlawful plant propagation when my neighbors allow weeds (Dandelions!) to overrun their lawns? ;)

My little visitor turned out to be a Gray Tree Frog. They are especially adept at camouflage, looking like a moss-covered stone!

That little toad appreciates your lawn furniture and thanks you for putting it there for his enjoyment.

Honestly. Government isn't already doing enough by sticking its nose into recognizing some relationships as legit and others as not. You'd think they'd be more concerned about the Golden Bar Maiden Grass dating outside its own species.

I think froggy appreciated the shade the furniture provided. After we offered him water, he left for greener pastures; he was gone this moring. :(

The government has it's hands full with recognizing the full spectrum of human relationships. I hope they'll leave the plants alone for the foreseeable future. ;)

D'aw! What a cute, contented little toad!

The Garden Police do NOT like your tone, young lady, and they WILL be watching you! If you make any attempt to divide the clumps, you will feel the full brunt of the law!

Garden Police? Bring 'em on! If they dare question my chosen methods for plant propagation, I'll make a deal with them, turning in neighbors with lackluster landscaping and weed-riddled lawns!

Gray Tree Frog perked up after we watered him, and he's gone this morning. :(
