Possession + Groundskeeper
Groundskeepers are nice to have in a deck that plays against possession, since the cardtext says "when you gain a card", but if you are possessed by your opponent and they buy a victory card on your turn, they gain it and thus get no vp from the groundskeepers in play. Buying groundskeepers also lets you prolong your own greening, enabling you to play your own possessions more often.
I encountered that interaction in a game with apothecary, groundskeeper, possession and not much else to do on that board so it turned out nicely since i also was lucky enough to get my possession up faster and was therefore in no hurry to end the game since my opponent didn't have theirs yet. That gave me some free time to buy all the groundskeepers and use them later.
