I don't have a Lowes in my town but I do go to one a couple times a month that's in the next town about 45 miles away and I go and buy tons of half off plants. At the home depot in my town they don't ever put anything on sale they will just let it die and throw it away and the lowes I go to the plants that are half off are still in perfect condition

Watch for the plants when they have blooms at the store, when they quit blooming is when they put them on the get rid of shelves.

now thats a waterfall love the rocks you have in your pond .I cannot believe how great all your ponds look even the pondless one .WOW Looks like you are in rural area also .You should get a weeping pine for up by your waterfall that would look really great with your other pines .I saw one at our garden center here and it was a colorado blue spruce someone ordered for there landscaping ,it was 1 impressive tree and cost was 1 thousand dollars .

Wow what a great deal you found in that baby sm. So they may not have good deals on plants but they make up for it the material things.
Lowes is the place to go for bargain plants on death row.
Hey maybe they have a dumpster out back of H-depot where they ditch the plants? Dumpster diving is all the rage now ya know :nananananana:

Here's one from last year tmann. I'm waiting for Clematis to grow up that cyclone fence gate and this year it is just starting to do so.

JW you should make one of those clay pot people and have them sitting in the bathtub.
