    I stay in the clearance section. My dad was not impressed when I would buy the sad looking ones, but a week or so later, he's like WOW. He's now a believer in the clearance plants 👍🏾👍🏾😁😁. My entire new yard is all clearance plants 😂😂🪴🌻

    That comeback was amazing! I picked up quite a few clearance plants last night for $1 and what 80% of them needed was just a good soak and the rest need to be trimmed and repotted with better soil.

    • @TheThriftedPlanter

      Isn't it crazy that all they need is water?! It's our win tho.

    As soon as I get to LOWES, I go to their clearance section.
    I got 6 Hydrangeas for $3 each last year at the beginning of the lockdowns and they look amazing at this very moment.
    I got blue, purple, white and hot pink ones. They look amazing along my fence between my succulents and lilies.

    • @outoftheforest7652
      @outoftheforest7652 Год назад

      Capitalism retail. It is such a racket. I mean the price that they charge for these plants is obscene and then the people they hire don't know how to properly care for them. I am sure they are only buying them for low wholesale cost ..I should do some research. I mean I can understand that planting from seed and resources to get plants of a decent size is requiring resources.. but how much are lowes paying for them and then I guess writing it all off as a LOSS .. Chaching..

    I am right there with you prowling plant clearance sections. If you are willing to get plants that aren’t picture perfect you can save a lot of money. It is amazing what some water and pruning off dead leaves will do for clearance plants.

    I have a 'Coffee Cups' elephant ears plant that looked as sad as your plants did initially. The pot is inside a cache pot so I watered it that the inside pot floated. The next day or two I checked on it and new shoots had emerged!
    It was only "mostly dead." (Princess Bride reference.) ☺️
