(I accidentally deleted my photo of 'before', so imagine seeing a pile of broken off plant pieces:)
I found broken off plant pieces at Walmart garden section.
I gather them off the ground-and take them to the counter and ask for them-I have yet to be told no:)

These are Bolvarin Jew and Pink blooming Kalanchoe
I also asked for a trash box full of beautiful purple Caroline sweet potato vine at a nursery last May, and now (mom and I both) this pot is over-flowing everywhere!
Motto: it never hurts to ask!
Wow! What a fabulous idea! My girls love picking up the silk flower pieces on the floor at Jo-Ann's. They come home and make pretty arrangements with their castoffs.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea, and it all looks so nice!
ReplyDeleteMy mom does that sometimes too! Great idea. Also thanks for stopping by my blog! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'll have to remember to ask about all the broken pieces I see at the nursery. Thanks for the idea.
ReplyDeleteI never thought of that. They just throw them anyway.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!
ReplyDeleteSo Carla, how did you break off all those leaves without the people at WalMart seeing you? haha
ReplyDeleteI wish you lived nearby. I've stuck every Kalanchoe leaf that's ever broken into soil, and most of them have rooted. I've got more of them than I can say grace over and would share some with you!
Carla, you always have such great tips! I never would have thought to pick up plant droppings at Walmart. Well, at least Walmart is good for something!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea- thanks for sharing! I can't wait for my next trip to the nursery!
ReplyDeleteHARHAR Nola! THIS time they were ALREADY broken:) LOL
