A California-based renter recently took to Reddit requesting advice after their landlord told them to remove plants from their rental property. According to the renter's post on r/AskALawyer, the landlord recently asked the renter to "permanently remove" plants from their deck atop a carport with just two days' notice. The renter detailed how the outdoor space was "rickety and suffering from water damage" before they leased the property. After the renter complained, the landlord sent a worker to make superficial repairs, but the deck's structural integrity "remained poor."
