Went to Home Depot with my $25 coupon today. I had to spend $25 to be able to use it. It took me almost an hour to find $25 worth of plants that weren't half dead. Seriously. Makes me crazy when stores don't care for their plants. 😡 I did manage to find a few succulents, which I repotted because they were in tiny little pots and root bound. The sansevieria was in mud!!  
Ok, rant over.

The big box stores are hit or miss. It’s more about the individual manager. They do not have the same requirements for the plant department. I have two Lowe’s very close to me. The one couldn’t care less about the plants and the other takes good care of them. And this is observed over several visits.
