On or about May 15 2016, I was arrested for plant abuse. I told the judge that I took full responsibility for my actions, and that I would fully restore the plant I had abused. She let me out after only one night in jail.
Today, a month later, I worked at the preschool where I had transplanted the abused sunflower and its twin brother several weeks ago. I present as Exhibit 1 the two sunflower plants as of today. I sit before the jury with my head held high. The jury is my MyLot peers.
What is my sentence?

Those Sunflowers are essential to the ecology of our planet.
They are home and sustenance to a variety of insect life, which in turn forms part of the food cycle. Furthermore, they p!ay an important life in respect of the global weather pattern, as all plant life does.
The disruption of our environment is a serious crime and you should be referred to an International Court for sentencing.

@TheHorse Which reminds me of the wreath my students and I made for the classroom door when I was teaching. It was made of a satellite photo of the earth, with the label from a can of Green Giant peas on top.

@ElizabethWallace Was a blender included, so we can finally have whirled peas?

there are seeds of doubt about your conviction - the evidence was planted - let's hope they let you work in the prison gardening detail - the flowers look happy enough

California, here I come
Right back where I started from
Where bowers are flowers bloom in the spring
Each morning at dawning
Birdies sing and everything
A sun kissed miss said "Don't be late!"
That's why I can hardly wait,
Open up that Golden Gate!
California, here I come!
It's a pretty long sentence, but you can handle it.

@TheHorse Yes it is, California Golden Poppy with wild blue lupine. I once planted 1/3 of my 1/2 acre with a mix of California wildflower seeds. So did the neighbors on either side of my property. We should all do this more often, or we will forget how wonderful they are.

You are resolved of all guilt @TheHorse . BTW, I had the judge fired.

You must personally plant every seed they produce.

Evidently there isn't any more evidence to charge you.1 person likes this

Looks like you nursed them back to proper health. I'd vote to keep you out of the horticultural slammer.

Those are hardy plants to have survived all that abuse. I suppose you'll get off with time served and six months probation.

I will sentence you of life imprisonment for planting only few of them. You should plant more to be acquitted.

You have to clean a baseball dugout after a game where all the players spit out sunflower shells.
