No big bucks to spend? No problem.

Saw a person throwing out a plant in a big pot today. The plant was quite dead but the pot & the soil were fine-SCORE! Once a year plant give-aways in the Quartier-SCORE! Pinching slips off plants you see almost anywhere to put in a glass, let root and then plant-SCORE! If you see someone gardening & admire their plants ask if they have some clippings to give away or if they can offer advice-SCORE! If you have minimum bucks there's always garage sales, Craigslist & Kijiji. With 1 or 2 exceptions, everything you will see in my pictures I either got for free or really, really cheap. That includes a lot of the plants too. The only thing you should NOT cheap out on are vegetable seeds or seedlings. You want/need quality for your veg. Even wild flowers that you can find anywhere are beautiful. That being said, get to know other gardeners & they will often, like me, have too many veggie seeds or seedlings & want to give some away.
