I first read the expression "Friends don't let friends buy annuals" on a Plants Delight Perennial catalog many years ago. Now, I see it on bumper stickers handed out by woody plant nurseries and non-annual growers. I still think it is as cute as it was when I first saw it, and I still enjoy saying it out loud, but only to those who know it is a tongue-in-cheek expression. It has become part of horticulture folklore.
