Thanks Diane,

It was the only one they had left.

Lowes is goofy.. About a month ago I bought Bromeliads there for $2. a pot of 3 and bigger than this flower. Today they had the same flower out but smaller, it was $15. for 3.......... why

My Lowe's doesn't have sales. They put out dead flowers once in a while for 1 or 2 dollars and I've bought mums a time or two but the other stuff is usually annuals that won't come back.

I thought I was getting a bargain like you at Home Depot until I got to the cash register. I told the girl it rang up wrong, she called someone and said the sign was wrong. It was supposed to be 10 hyanciths and 70 anemones (bulbs)for $3.49; I knew it was too good to be true...

Sheri,

Now the difference is Location ,Location.
In your area there is no need for all the seasonal give aways.
In ours the summer and fall stuff have to go, and house plants, because they will have to pay to store them in a warmer area.
Thus the difference......

sure will keep you upsy on it ..

At Lowe's Another thing you can do is watch at the return desk. Plants get returned for the weirdest reasons. Orchids that drop flowers but are otherwise healthy end up returned. Unforunately the garden staff puts all the returns in the dumpster usually. Sometimes weak plants will be discounted or plants out of season. Sometimes they will give them to you.

It's sad people buy plants but then short circuit and don't know what to do.
The plant suffers for it.
