Our Lowe’s would never give the items you got for free. Many time the plants died and they threw the plants away and they would sell the terra cotta planter $5 or more. Even plants are dying and it’s never cheap alway $8 and up. You got a great score 👏🏼👏🏼
Looks like it’s always depends on the manager, the moment and the mood 😂😂😂
That's what they do at my Lowe's too
Same here in Geogia. They are 3/4 dead & still expensive. They'd rather throw them away. smh
Right! The Lowe’s in my area barely ever discount plants, let alone give them away. I’ve asked so many times for discounts on sad/dying plants & always am told no.😢
@@plantheartbeats No. You got someone that should have known better. I have a horrible feeling there is going to be a lecture coming up for all the employees because of this.
There was 50-80 plants in a small open dumpster at Lowe’s one day. It had frozen the night before & I guess they thought they all would die. They didn’t, most of them are still alive in my back yard & on their 2cd year. 😁
😊💚💚💚
Are used to work at Lowes and they were so wasteful! I would be running around the store pulling live plants out of dumpsters and handing them to customers in the backyard. Why throw out a living thing!?
@@gemmaquinn1048 because they have no self respect. they would do the same with people if it wasnt against the law. corporations only care about the bottom line and to appease their investors.
I fished plants out of the "garbage" one time and was told by Lowe's employees that it was a form of stealing. Apparently, they need to send those plants back to the growers in order to get credit for the plants that they weren't able to sell. The supervisor who stopped me told me never to do that again, and I didn't.
On the other hand, that same supervisor marked down the price 50% on a lemon tree because one of the main branches broke off. It's now recuperating in my garden. I also got a 50% off on a pink dogwood for a similar reason.
Usually, around October/November, Lowe's marks down whatever plants and/or trees, bushes etc. are left over from the season. They start at 25% off, then 50%, then even up to 90% off. I've gotten lots of plants that way.
💚💚💚
Update on getting nearly free plants. My local Lowes store had orchids on sale for half price, but there was one there was was *90%* off! I got the plant for $2.00!!! So, it is now added to my collection. I thought I already had a white orchid, but it might have finished blooming. No matter! Now I have a new one! 😸
They never send plants back to the grower. There’s insurance for plant loss but they also account for some of it to die.
Box store plant killers. I wish they would train their people how to water, prune, and care for plants. Glad you were able to rescue them!
Those babies won the plant lotto. Could not have gone to a better home💚
Thanks 💚💚💚
Talk about being at the right place at the right time .. I love this for you .. those pots are adorable.
Yes! Thank you!
Her smile is from ear to ear. She is happy with all her new plants. 😊
😀💚
I wish my Lowe’s would do this, but they’d rather throw them away than give them for free lol
That was a true blessing. Most of my 80 some plants were rescued from Lowe's. That clearance rack can be amazing!!
That is awesome!
I call it the "Tryng to die" rack. I love that rack.
How do you find out when they have clearances scheduled?
My store keeps a clearance rack up daily.. i just fo once a week. This week they were 75% off@SimAviator
I always check the clearance rack at my Lowes. There are NEVER free plants, but I got 3 last week for about $2.00 each, so that was a good deal!
Oh wonderful!!! 😁 👍
I have never seen any plant in the discount rack @ my local Lowe's for $2.00.
The cheapest I've gotten from that rack is a orchid $7:00 which did not make it.
But for for free ? Forget it.
I was at Lowe’s and got 3 Celiosa, a Creeping Jenny and a little 4pack of succulents for less than $5! Also a decent Hibiscus for $8. Plant prices have risen just like everything else!
Ikr, the same where I live . Many plants I would be ashamed to sell in they're condition but I wouldn't mind at all giving them to someone who believe that they can breathe some life back into it .
👍🏿 good find . You got this with a little TLC those babies will be fine
11:41 the soil has gone hydrophobic. You're best to submerge the pot in a bucket of water and leave it for an hour. 👍🏼
Congrats...Home Depot does this, too. I look for the freebies. Don't for forget to share your plants once they multiply. My giveaway is in April for the Earth Day. We must do our part to save Mother Earth.
Thanks Regina!! 💚💚💚
Where would the freebies be located?
Where are you located I'm in Texas lost my plants in fire before Christmas lost everything home dog and car my house looked like a jungle missing them
Wow, I'm blown away. My Lowe's wouldn't give anything away ! They'd rather see it in the trash than allow someone to try and save them.
That’s so nice of the Lowes employee. An employee at Lowes gave me a bunch of those same pots last year. Score!! 😀💚 Perks of your local Lowes 💚 The Calathea will come back in good light an no extra humidity needed. I have 7 an in NC they get nothing special. I do fine in reg room air. I bought that same Aglaonema not sure of the name but I let all of mine dry out pretty good between waterings an pretty high light. Good luck with the plants. 💚
Oh I appreciate the tips! Thanks!
Congrats you won the clearance lottery:)! I've never heard of any store giving away anything for free. Our Lowes does not do free plants and certainly not free pots, but I do check their death rack and have gotten a few good deals on occasion - always worth a look.
Although I'll never understand why they sometimes only mark them down 25% when they are either dead or on the way. Sheesh!
I know is so sad! 😭😭
I’m so glad you were able to save them! You should make another video in a few months to let us see how the plants are doing.
Yes I will try to. 💚
Yes please! Lol I came to the comments hoping for a link to an update vid
I am happy for you and the plants!! They found an owner! It is a crime they would want to throw these away!
Yes! So happy to see them alive!
Hi one time I went to Lowe's before a freeze and also before a hurricane and they told me I could fill my cart for $5!
A huge section all the plants that were still on carts
So yep before storms or freezes it's good to stop by and see
But free pots that's awesome 😊
Awesome!!! Good to know! 😊😊😊💚💚💚
That was so nice of the worker to give the plants to you. Sometimes people have compassion. Whether its allowed or not, it was a nice gesture. I'm sure there will be some upset negative Nancy commenters .But O'WELLLL...Enjoy your rescue plants ..They are beautiful💚💚💚
Thanks!!
House plant prices have gone up such a lot in the uk. I have found plant discounted by 80% because they have been neglected tuck away. My best one was only £1.50. Love taking them home and nurturing them.
Love your vlog
Love you hear that!💚👋
Yay, for the plant rescue! 😊 dry is always better than over watered. Your sparkle deffienbachia is fabulous!
The pots are amazing!
Such an exciting rehab project!
Thanks so much! 😊
I'm always looking at the clearance plants indoor or out. I would feel so bad because they would be bone dry so I would grab a hose and start watering some of them.
😂
It depends on the sales person. 😊 I just got a large bag of miracle grow potting soil 1/2 price because it had a tear on the bottom of the bag. 👍🏻
Yes! You are correct! 💚
I've never seen the pots reduced at Lowes. Now, my husband n I always get the reduced almost dead plants at Lowes. I love getting them back to life n thriving again. Last week we got two medium sizes Gerbera Daisy for 4.00 each n 2 coleus for 2.oo each. And a nice medium sized mandaviĺ a
Diffenbachia don't like to dry out but they also don't like to be over watered. If they need water they'll let you know by drooping. They'll perk right back up within a few hours. I've had some good clearance plant hauls at Lowes ( both garden plants and houseplants ) but you hit the clearance plant lottery.
lol! Thanks for the tips!💚
Diffenbachia Splash and the one with the fan leaves is a Split leaf Philodendron "Selloum" in its early stage. That African Mask alocasia is beautiful and healthy looking. I hope your plants live for along time so you can remember where they came from.
Thanks! Hope they do! They definitely will have a special memory in my heart!💚
I bought lettuce that was full of little green bugs right off the produce shelf. Be careful! I was so confused as to how they got inside the packaged product and survived packaging. They rinced right off and down the drain.😊
This whole video was SOO satisfying!! I LOVE plant babies, too!! 🌱🌱🌱
Subscribed✅💚
Thanks Stephanie!!! 💚💚💚
I scored lots of these plants, formerly $12.99, for $3.99, just 2-3 days before new spring stock came in!
Wonderful!💚
Everything happens for a reason ❤️ they’re beautiful ❤️
Thanks!!! 💚💚💚
Wow, that is shocking that they would throw away pots that in perfectly good condition. That is plainly waste. I am glad you were able to rescue all that and the poor plants. Perfectly salvageable.
My thoughts exactly. 💚
So glad you were able to rescue those plants. Thank you Lowes.
Me too! 💚👏
I love Lowe's! Great business. They have given me so many great deals and now i'm a faithful customer. I won't even go to their competitors for plants. No one compares to them! You're so blessed :) Glad the plants found a good home!
Thank you!! 💚💚💚
I only have a local HD and they often do this. They put them all on a flat cart with a free sign ❤
This is amazing! Happy to hear that!!! 💚👏
Congrats! This is what I call ‘a perfect haul.’ Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The pots are beautiful. So are the plants. I have gotten a few plants that we’re free last year. They were all vegetable plants. I nursed them back to health.
Oh that’s wonderful!
@@plantheartbeats as you know free is the best
You are so blessed! The Lowe's here in Statesboro, Ga is so callous and greedy they would rather throw it all away than really sell at a discount or give them away. No care for growing things, just their bottom line.
😩
Congratulations, great find! While you were standing in the parking lot and (I'm assuming) your car door was squeaking, my dog went into full protect-house mode and started boofing. Not full barks, but warning boofs. He thought that noise was coming from our front door 😂 Fun fact, my dog is a rescue from North Carolina now living in Ontario, Canada
Oh wow! Funny he was listening as well! 🐶 Hello to him! So cool he is from NC! 💚 Thanks!
Please gives us updates of these babies. I always feel bad when stored are throwing these plants away
Ok I will try!💚
Oh wow, glad you got the plants and pots for free, does defenetely make more sense than trashing them, what a good decision at lowes
Yes! So happy they allowing this at least this time! 💚
IAM so happy for you I would also be thrilled if it would have happened to me 😊💕!!
Thank you!!
Spider mites were the first pest I ever got when I was new to plants and I thought I had killed the plants so I just kept throwing them out for a few years. Luckily they were only cheap plants that I could get again at home depot or lowe's but now I can treat them pretty easily that I don't even miss a beat when I see spider mites
What do you use to kill?
@@lettyguerragirlbills792 I just spray them down with the shower head every other day for a few weeks and it usually works. I always catch it early though because I do light inspections all the time
I’m so happy they let you take them!
Yes I was very surprised! I’m sure that’s not the norm.
I can’t believe it I’m so glad they gave you the plants I hate to see them in the garbage ❤❤
Yes me too!💚
Such a sweet video! Thank you for giving all these plants another shot at life ❤❤❤
Thanks for your kind comment!💚😀
That's amazing so happy for you... Yes!!!
💚💚💚
Definitely check inside the pots once they have had a chance to perk up, especially the aglaenema. I got 2 from Lowes last year, they started acting funny after a few months. When i checked on the roots, i discovered every single stem ended in a plastic hydroponic root plug. Same thing with the dragon tree i also purchased there.
Thanks! I actually repotted the anglonema yesterday and it did have those small plastic pots!!! Hopefully now she has a better change of recovery. Thanks for sharing! I think everyone needs to check their anglonema from Costa Farms.
@@plantheartbeats i think anything "cane" from that producer will likely have them. I would bet your diefenbachia probably will also. The only other things i ever purchased from them was a tetrasperma and african violet and neither one of those had them.
I've been saving plants from Lowe's but I've payed over 50% off the price. It's awesome that they do this for customers
Mee to… normally 50% off… but in this case I don’t know why but they have it ready to throw them away and I was there in the right moment I guess…
@@plantheartbeats I saw alot of plants in the trash and no they will not give to me.
Our Lowes would never ever give that all for free lol. They would rather theow it away. Girl, you scored!
😅😅👏🏻👏🏻
You hit the jackpot and I am glad you are going to save those plants.
😊😊😊💚💚💚
I am really surprise they gave them to you. I have tried for years to hit Home Depot and Lowes for throw aways. The managers stated that they can not give them away because people bring them back to get money for them. GEEZ!
Oh man, that’s true I guess people could try to do that. 🫤
Thats why things are destroyed before going in dumpster. People try
To return for $
May I make a suggestion? When I buy a dry plant at a garden center like Wal Mart where they are bad at keeping there plants alive because they rarely water them, I come home and fill the kitchen sink with warm water a few inches and set the plant down in the warm water for about 15-20 min. Then pick it up and let it drain well, they perk up MUCH faster. Anyway, enjoy your new plants...they are really nice and I'm sure you'll bring them back to life and your friends will admire what you did to get them flourishing again! 😉😊🌹🪴🦋
That’s a great idea! Thanks
OMG I’m so jealous! But good on you for saving them!!
Thanks Mioshee! 💚💚💚
Wow! I will call you the Plant Rescuer! I love the pots! You did a wonderful job with these plants! They look happy now! Have a great day! 😊🪴
Thank you so much!
Aglaonema Snow Storm, I have that one too. Came from Lowe’s too
Thanks so much!!! 💚💚💚
Hello Plant Lover, I assume that you know that most of the plants from nurseries were planted in a mix that has a great amount of peat moss. When it gets very dry it is difficult to moisten it.... BUT if you use warm water, not hot, as that would burn roots But warm water is more easily absorbed into the soil. for the pests use a q tip dipped into rubbing alcohol and touch those critters it will often kill them. congratulations on your plant rescue. Rick
Thanks! Yes alcohol is wonderful to kill mealy bugs, my preferred method as well! In this case I used a spray that kills different kinds of pests varieties just in case. Thanks for the tips!
Wow. You were in the right place at the right time! Lucky you!!
Yes! 😅
I cannot believe you got that nice size alocasia for free😍 let alone all of these for free I have to give this a try!
Yes! You never know… 😅
Lowe and home Depot is great for giving great discounts on plants that are damaged, dying, thier consumer can bring back to life. That why I love plant shopping at these stores. Wish I could have gotten some plants for free.
Yes I know
Great job. The calethea is a medallion like your husband said. Good luck. I had one last year
Thanks! Good to know! 💚
The diffenbachia is varigated diffenenbachia, I have 3 and that's what they were labeled. Nice score on these plants. I am a clearance rack junkie and as you said , most only need some water. ❤
Thanks!
Great deal! Aglaonema like to dry more than your average houseplant and are easy to rot if the soil stays too dense and moist so just make sure to let her sufficiently dry and other than that, they're super easy. Good luck!
Thanks for the tips!
If any one can bring them back,is you!good luck!
💚🌵🌱☘️💚
I need to get a part time job at Lowes…. I know exactly where I would work!
Me too! lol 😂
That's wonderful you saved the plants and kept the planters out of the landfill.
Thanks!!!💚💚💚
🌿🍃👏💕...I do the same. It's so satisfying to rescue these almost dying plants back to life!!
💚💚💚
What fun to watch! I love me some rescue plants and free is even better! It was so satisfying to watch you clean them up, treat them for pests and give them some extra love. When you rescued them, they definitely hit the Jackpot! Great job. Thank you for sharing! 👌👏🪴🥰
Glad you enjoyed!
So glad you were able to save some plants. I tried to save some orchids at Lowe's but they wouldn't let me. The woman dumping them said they had to be counted and sent to the supplier for reimbursement to the store. She threw out a whole cart full. So sad.
Oh man that hurts. I imagine that’s usually the case. I was surprised they said yes but I imagine that’s not going to happen again. 💚
Similar thing happened to me at one of my big box stores. Seemed like a waste.
I spray alcohol on my plants if I see mealy bugs, about 50% it doesn't seem to hurt the plant, but it just melts those bugs, nasty little pests! Much easier than trying to wipe down all the leaves, sometimes I may have to give them a second spray in 2 or 3 weeks. I wish my Lowes would give dying plants away, they usually don't even put them on clearance! Pitiful!!!
I agree.💚
They all great plants an all they need watering g an transplanting when they recuperate going good
Yes! ☺️
Well, that is wonderful. I was Wal Mart one day to buy impatient plants. So I see a worker pushing a tall metal cart to the back of the store full of only Impatient plants, and they were in bloom. I asked the worker if I could buy some, and he said no, I have to throw them out . SMH ..
😭 so SAD!!!
Just a little bit of love goes a long way I’m a plant mom I was just so excited to see you rescue those plants I do the same thing every day😍😍🪴
Thanks!!
Wowwww . Lowes gave those pots and plants for $0. I went yesterday and a clerk told me that all plants were 50% off. They don’t advertise, but when you are lucky you are lucky. I love lowes. I wish they will let me know, when they are throwing pots and plants. 😂😂😂
Yes! We wish that they had a section with free pots or plants that they going to throw them away…
Calatheas do not like tap water if it contains chlorine or chloramine. Distilled water or rain water is best. Good luck with your new babies.
Thanks for the reminder!😅💚
Thanks for sharing. You really lucked up. Our Home Depot in Capital Heights Maryland once Sold me a broken pot for a 5% discount, keep in mind we have a 6% tax rate😂. I was told by the manager they could not GIVE ANYTHING away even if it’s broken or dead.
😢😅
So happy you rescued them!I see so many plants over watered at Lowes and Home Depot that end up in the trash and I think they try to recupe the money they lose by increasing the prices.Good luck 😊Hi from Maine
Hello! 💚
I have gotten nice pots, and a ton of starter pots from Lowes going early on Saturday morning, going to start asking about plants on my next Saturday trip!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
What a Plant blessing. You did real good with the plant love.
Thank you! 😊
I can’t believe stores throw plant’s away if not much wrong with them.
My store won't give them to you, once they're in the throw away cart that's it! I've often thought I'd go to the dumpster and get them out!
@@peggydove8756 The dumpster is the place to look. Don't even ask. Nobody at the back dock will give a care.
My guess is that you have a dieffenbachia compacta. Light veining through the center, wider green outside margins. Fairly common and since it came from Lowes I'm going to assume the plant you have is not too rare a variety.
Wow I learned so much from you!Loved the way you demonstrated and explained everything!Look forward to more info.
Glad it was helpful!
Beautiful plants. Hope you are able to save them all. That had to be so exciting to find that deal.
Yes it was unreal. 😀💚
Wish they would be so generous like that at my Lowes is El Paso. They used to have any pretty good clearance and have some for $1, but know they dont even do that.
Oh no, I hate that! I love a good clearance. 💚🪴
My local Aldi used to lower prices of old plants but it stopped earlier this year. Most of my plants were dead and thriving now.
💚💚💚
Great haul. I hope you know a plumber, washing all that soil down your drain will eventually clog it up.
😂😅😅 I do! Everything goes good!!!
Good on you saving those beauties!
💚💚💚 yes!!! Let’s give them an other chance!!
I was in the exact same Lowe’s today and it looks like you were in Shallotte North Carolina! Are used to work at Lowes and you would not believe the amount of plants that they would just throw in the dumpster because they were out of season or some such BS! So wasteful! They are living things! One Lowes was throwing out an entire giant garbage cans full of pothos cuttings so I whisked them home and they’re everywhere in my house now growing up walls down cabinets lol
Glad your were able to save them!!! 👏 😀
How cool 😍😍😍😍😍 great job saving them....thank you so much for sharing have an amazing week💚💚💚
Thank you! You too!
Years ago, I went to a college greenhouse and just picked up scraps of plants on the floor and made about 15 plants including the mother of a thousand plant. I would look at a few of the plants you have there a I would have immediately split them into two pots but definitely repotted into bigger pots. I like what you do but I need no advice on getting free plants and actually it is a bit of a fault. I gave a spliced plant to a friend, and she never touched it and it grew into a spectacular large specimen peace lily. Mine never got that big because I have the addiction of attacking plants and making more plants for free. Someday I will let my plants be.
Good job!
Alakasha you take a leaf and make a pile of sand put on top. Pat cover with cement with some water in it and put another leaf and press in to, make the vain imprint and mist. Everytime it gets a little dryer two days peal open.and you have a bird bath you can pain green 😅
😂❤ two of the plant you got at Lowes are poison.
Tips get brown to much water
👍
👍
Thanks!
I, too, am a plant recuser and love the way you cleaned them up. Happy growing!
Thanks! 💚💚💚
Made me think of all the beautiful things being thrown away that could be donated.
Exactly… so sad…
Try submerging the root ball in water for a little while so the roots can rehydrate. Great haul. Good luck.
Great idea! Thanks
I was there and see all these plants , but even in that condition where to expensive, I wish I can have free to rescue them!!!!
I see it too!! I wish the same!
I'm so glad you were able to rescue all those plants from the trash!!
Me too!!! Thanks!! 💚💚💚 so happy to help a little bit!
I bought a amaryllis that was in very bad shape the check out lady said that plant is ugly I said yes but it is a great price the next spring it bloomed and was very beautiful I wished I could show it to the checkout lady
Yes! 👏🏻
The philodendron does look like my philodendron Shangri-la mine had smaller leaves but yours could be more mature. Something I noticed with mine is if it gets good light it has like a blue shimer on it. So pretty but you only see it when you look right up close under bright light.
Oh how cool! Thanks for the information!💚
You scored girl! Congratulations!
Thanks!😁
@@plantheartbeats you’re so very welcome
Recuerdo q un día fui a lowes y compré muchas suculentas Yo estaba asustada por cuánto iva a pagar y el cajero me pregunto cuánto quería pagar por cada una y Yo le dije 1 dólar y el me dijo pues eso vas a pagar nunca más vi a esa persona yo creo q era su último día de trabajo y se despidió haciendo una obra de bien conmigo 😊
Que bueno! Me alegro muchísimo!!! 💚💚💚
So glad you were able to save them!
Thanks!
Oh my gosh! I'm in Raleigh but never get in at the right time! I did get a half price baby lemon tree at HD Sept of 21. She gave me 4 beautiful lemons last month!
That is awesome!
My experience with Aglaomena is they are pretty forgiving if just skipping one watering, so that poor plant must have been left to dry for a really long time. Your Dieffenbachia looks a lot like mine, which is called Camille. So happy you saved them.
Thanks for the information.💚
