I stoped in at Home Depot on Friday to replace a String of Pearls. The had a full spread of succulents out in those tiny pots that just scream for me to take them home. I spent two hours in there trying to decide which one I "had" to have.

I made three brand new planters and spruced up to existing succulent planters. I'm so in love with the Ogre Ears!

Do they give quantity discounts? Smiling

I tend to go a bit crazy when I see all those little succulents too. Ogre Ears and Elkhorn are my favorites.

I love the Elkhorns too! This one wasn't in the best of shape but of the hundreds and hundreds of items in stock that was literally the only one I could find.

Great Haul!!!! Hurray!

This is the best time to hit HD for succulents. They always get a new shipment in around this time and they are fresh and have not had time to suffer the store bad treatment. They are a little higher than thy were last yr. Last year they were 2.98 for the 2" pots and 3.99 for the 4"

Lowes will get their shipment in next month and by April you will be able to pick up some good 1.00 markdowns by May.

I have my shopping trips down to a method now. Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing

If they sold these plants with their colors on, they wouldn't be able to stock them fast enough. Hardly any of them stay plain green when they get a ton of sun.
