The question is asking about the reason why Colonel Lloyd's garden was a source of trouble on the plantation. The options provided are: A. It attracted too many visitors, B. The chief gardener was incompetent, C. The fruit was often stolen by slaves, and D. The garden lacked proper maintenance. The correct answer is C. The fruit was often stolen by slaves. This is because, in the context of the novel "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave" by Frederick Douglass, Colonel Lloyd's garden was a source of trouble because the slaves would often steal the fruit from it. This was a form of resistance against the oppressive system of slavery, as the slaves were not allowed to eat the fruit and were often punished for doing so. The other options do not accurately reflect the situation described in the novel.
