RickM said:I went to Home Depot yesterday to try to convince the manager to let me take the remaining amaryllis off his hands. No deal. He said he makes out better by throwing them in the dumpster than marking them down below 50%.

It might be good that he doesn't have his own business. Throw them away and they get to write off the wholesale price they paid...actually recovering a small percentage of that lesser price. Half price beats that hands down.

Always looking for interesting plants for pollinators and food! Bonus points for highly, and pleasantly scented plants.
