I was wondering, where is your favorite place to buy plants and plant pots?

Yes!!! I go to TjMaxx and Marshall’s specifically for these plant pots!! They’re the best!! All of my 44 plants are in them. They are so cute and they have some many varieties and colors. Best of all, they’re super affordable!!

I usually go to local plant shops but also ikea occasionally! I also like antique shops. I usually use the method where I have a plastic pot sitting inside the ceramic/glass (decorative) pot, so the decorative one doesn’t have to have drainage. That gives me lots more selection.

Lowes/Home Depot in spring for herbs, local small nursery all summer for plants I take a risk on because they have several generations of knowledge and the cutest displays. Online buying mostly on Etsy for the varieties I can’t find locally. Other online stores (Steve’s Leaves, Gabriella Plants) plus others.

Pots: I use the plastic pot in a pot method as well. They offer more options to swap out pots. Easier to repot with plastic. I like heavier ceramic and some terracotta pots. They can be expensive. So, I will repurpose other ceramic items like handle free tea cups, ceramic pet bowls, countertop utensil holders, or anything ceramic or porcelain that can hold my plant. I have a drill bit that can make the drain holes.

i've gotten most of my pots at thrift stores! i got a drill bit for making drainage holes in glass/ceramic and it's given me way more options. also ross SOMEtimes has cute ones

#### Jasmine replied on 2023-08-25

Smart! Looks like I might be heading to the hardware store

That’s the way to go. Changes your perspective. You will never look at ramekins and soup crocks the same again!!🍲🍚🍜🪴🍯
