HAPPY HALLOWEEN

SNOOPY

Snoopy is a fictional character in the comic strip Peanuts, by Charles M. Schulz. He is Charlie Brown's pet beagle. Snoopy began his life as a conventional dog, but eventually evolved into a most dynamic character — and among the most recognizable comic characters in the world.

Snoopy is also a tennis player. He became "Joe Cool" as he put on sunglasses and leaned against the wall doing nothing.

Snoopy loves root beer and pizza, hates coconut candy, gets claustrophobia in tall weeds. One of his hobbies is reading Leo Tolstoy's epic novel War and Peace at the rate of "a word a day".

Usually these plants flower around April - so they're six months early and welcome you!
