We in rock gardening would like to think of it more as a coincidence. I think they are delighted the plants are turning out to be useful.

They make very beautiful mats of evergreen foliage, extremely durable and tough particularly good in the Eastern Atlantic seaboard.

No conspiracy. I think it's more coincidence than anything.

Frankly, I don't think this coincidence will happen again.

I just can't imagine that it's only a coincidence. I think they feel that it's kind of getting out of their control, and they're trying to tighten it back up.

Once we started making things more difficult for them, I don't think it was a coincidence that all of sudden we were cutting a little harder and we were screening a little better.
