      FYI, road closures in CBD for St Paddys day celebrations. Also the harbour bridge is turning 80 (bridge will remain open)

    Nice deal anyway.
    I believe they are the plants previously in the gardens / parks all over City of Sydney countil. They frequently renew plants. I always wonder what happened to the previous plants and flowers as they are normally in full bloom or in good condition.

    I saw them yesterday outside the Powerhouse museum emptying these plant boxes along the street they were literally just throwing them into a big truck any which way.
    I was like hey they are good plants why are they just launching them into a truck.
    They could have at least been a bit more considerate.

    Cool deal though. All the plants I saw look very healthy and good stock…. until they were thrown into a back of a truck.
