Scientific software can either be categorized as existing in a garden, restricted from sharing, modification, or reuse, or a meadow, where these restrictions have been removed.  Despite the growing success of the meadow model for scientific software dissemination, there remains a cultural entrenchment among many scientists to release their software into gardens. Broader attention to this issue is needed as part of our commitment to improving the sustainability of scientific infrastructure.
