Gina1960 said:LOL I have actually picked up pieces of plants in the parking lot of Lowes and Home Depot that fall off of people's purchases on the way to the car and taken them home and rooted them. Got several coleus that way this summer. Coleus roots like a weed here, you just stick it in the ground and it does;t even wilt
Glad I'm not the only one! I have even found like succulent leaves that fell off at the cash register still sitting on the counter and I've asked the cashier if I can have it. They are always more than happy to let me. Otherwise they would have just tossed it. So far I think only 1 of the ones I ever got like that has actually propagated (most are too damaged) but hey its worth a try lol!
