Sorry that you had such bad luck with the azalea being stolen. I hope that this isn't a common occurance. The neighborhood association is going to have the first planting to kick off the Go Green Germantown on this Thursday evening at Moe's on Goss. We are meeting at 7 PM for the event. We are hoping to generate interest in all neighbors to plant trees and flowers.
Did you by any chance, call the police and report that your plant was stolen. The only reason I suggest this is because once any pattern of theft is established, even if the items seem "small", the city will increase the patrols in our particular neighborhood. We have had a few items stolen off porches in the Lydia area lately.
