Sales at Lowes

Just happened to check out Lowes today for any plant sales and OMG, I picked up 20-yes that's twenty- plants for $5.00, every plant I bought was .25 cts, bought lots of daylily(and they weren't stellas)-they had stellas & happy returns(bought 2 of those), but the large tall bloomers(can you tell I'm not a DL fanactic-LOL)-nice plants too-not half dead, I bought Geum-Mrs Bradshaw, & hardy mums, they also had salvias & veronicas-not a bad selection for a clearance-maybe those close to you will have a good selection too!

I also got soil(Organic-miracle grow) for 1/2 price-the bags that are opened(just a tear)

I was quite pleased with myself, so I thought I'd share

Here's hoping you get good deals too!

Happy Gardening!

    That's GREAT. Lowes has the best sales on older or sad sack plants that just might need some TLC.

    Thanks for the tip. Enjoy!!

    NO, not older or sad sack-they are actually nice looking plants-some with buds, had been well watered and overall looked healthy.
    I know what you mean though, they can be a bit neglectful,and every store is different, but the plants I got and those left behind(yes-I did leave some-LOL) look good

    four paws,

    after reading your post I rushed out to Lowe's & Home Depot. Didn't find any deals like yours. Great find. Your so lucky. Congrats on the great find.

    Granny57, it was Sunday 8-21-05 at the Milford-bypass 28 location

    Barnbatt,
    I'm sorry you rushed right out & yours didn't have the same deals :o(, I suppose different locations handle their sales in different ways

    Just don't buy any Hostas from them - I've seen HVX infected plants at my local Lowes. (Columbus)
    Unfortunatly, mine isn't having a sale either, & I'd love to pick up some of the day lilys!!

    I'm Sorry folks, it appears it was just a one day local sale :o(

    And yes, I know about the hosta at Lowes/HD/ & Meijer have seen HVX in all those places-is soooo sad

    well maybe your Lowes will have their sale this weekend
    Happy gardening!

    No big sales at the Hilliard Lowes...but, I did get all the broken bags of soil, etc.

    Love it!

    Lowes GETS good plants...but they often don't properly care for them. Lowe's is where plants go to die...unless you buy them!!

    I have bought lots of good plants there but you have to watch because the concept of "watering" seems foreign to those clerks...I watch as they walk by a poor wilting plant with a dry soil ball that has shrunk away from the pot 10 times and don't think "gee...maybe that plant needs water..."
