dumpster orchids

I found five large phalenopsis orchids and some other nice plants in a cardboard recycling bin behind the local Monstromart (Ooh, that’s a great price for twelve pounds of nutmeg!).

Apparently somebody in the garden center thought the recycling bin was a trash can. I got about ten different plants all told, but I had to pass up three arbor vitae trees because I didn’t have the trailer with me.

There were several other people dumpster diving & we exchanged polite greetings.

  1. Haha! If the Monstro Mart is also known as Home Despot, then polite greetings back atchya! I don’t think anybody got the arbor vita trees.
