well I did it again

I hit the flower morgue at lowes got a bunch of flowers for .50 each I got 2 pots of hydrangras and they are looking good in the ground also got 3 begonias all but 1 is planted and several dianthus planted and looking good we had hail yesterday so won't know the damage till sun up today then will get pics

 

Nice deal and a good find,..i will be on the look out after sun up.

 

There are flower morgues? At Home Depot too? (That's closer to me.) How exciting! I'll have to go find out where they've put it!

 

Ronni... our Home Depot doesn't have a mark-down rack... just Lowes.
Geez... now I have the urge to go see what they have!

 

The Home Depot I worked at does a markdown section. Perhaps it depends on the store? Maybe you could talk to the Store Manager and vendors about doing it, they may not realize that people would be willing to purchase flowers that arent so great looking. Making friends with the vendors is a great way to get deals on plants

Donna, I don't understand why you put chicken wire around the hydrangea in that first picture. The other one isn't as protected, so I got curious. I'm pretty new to gardening, so it may be very obvious to everyone else, but not to me.

 

because my dog wants to dig it up and going to have to do the other 1 too

 

Wow you got a great deal there,..the Hydrangea for a start they cost approx $8 here for a small one,..and so the reason i "acquire",..cuttings by hook or by crook,..well done.

 

yep I think .50 cents was a real good buy they had 2 and I grabbed them cause they are very expensive here especially around mothers day
