Rick--and anyone else----
When the CC's blooms end--they seem to not have any more sale's value.
At the HD--they do not clearance them at all. Out of bloom--Junky looking--down the chute--
OR--maybe the vendors come and take them back to sell next year. !!! Moore logical...
At Lowes--they jam all the remaining CC's on shelvs on a cart and discount them.
That is when I go to Lowes and see if I can pick up some dropped off fronds and just take them.
Of course--I would have to remember what color they were??? That is how I got one of my
favorites. The one I just called these--"Pretty pink"
Even if i do not--the broken off fronds are always healthy and fat. I do not feel guilty at all
taking some of them. Their only other option is the trash dumpster....
