Leaving behind vegetable garden and flower garden.

[Pherion]

Maryland - I'm moving out of my boyfriends parents house after living there for about 3 years. We never officially had a rental agreement, I just paid them some money each month. I'm leaving behind a huge vegetable garden, and some very sentimental flowers.

The vegetables are generally unmovable. Do I have any rights to continue tending them and harvest the vegetables?

The flowers, I can pot up and take with me, but it's very dangerous to move them in the middle of the growing season. I'd prefer to wait till the fall to transplant them, once they've gone dormant. Again, do I have rights to continue tending them, and to move them when the time comes?

Thanks,
Frank

You have whatever "rights" the homeowners allow. Ask them.
