I just this week had a mysterious addition in my mapped and documented gardens. I received the lovely Snow Maiden from Arlyn a couple years back and planted it in my (then) new ATP bed. It never moved until last summer when I built a new dwarf ring at the end of the ATP bed. Snow Maiden was at the base of the ring so I moved it up from the ATP bed to the ring right above. Simple no?
Well, hmmmmmmmmm. Snow Maiden had a maiden bloom this week and.... it is Muggles and not Snow Maiden. Blinking I checked with Arlyn and he doesn't grow Muggles. So where the heck did they come from and where oh where is my Snow Maiden? Arlyn sagely suggested Garden Gnomes, and we all know the mischief they create! But I wonder .... I also was suppose to have Dumbledore and he disapparated and left me with Muggles in another section of the garden. Did he take Snow Maiden with him and leave me with yet more Muggles? I think magic trumps Gnomes but who knows??!! Confused
