Would be cheaper plants in a nursery Wal-Mart or Home Depot? No, they are generally more expensive in a nursery - but they are also given better care by people who know these plants.
I usually buy from Walmart or Home Depot when they are on clearance at the end of the year. I'll pay 50 cents for a plant that can survive or not - but I did not pay a fortune.
If you buy from Walmart or Home Depot - the lead early in the season when they just come out or I go to my local nursery and support.
And I used to work for many nurseries. Some big box stores. Only so many people grow plants, so I came across a competitor to HD and we agreed that our discount of 45% still do not compete with HD and plants from the same place. Flag abuse
Nurseries are usually more expensive
NO!
Try Wal-Mart first and then Home Depot or Lowes
Nurseries are normally more expensive but they have a better selection
not cheaper at Walmart and Home Depot, but generally the nursery EBST quality for the long term its better to pay more
you will pay a few cents more at the nursery, but the quality of plants will be much higher.
support your local nursery instead of these channels huge plus.
Nurseries may be a slightly higher price, but considering the quality of a nursery is a much better value. The big box stores like Wal-Mart, Home Depot, Lowe's, etc. do not take adequate care of the plants they sell. Poor's and sporadic watering by the staff and very little maintenance is done with plants. The boxes do not pay for plants, unless they are sold not to care for them as your local nursery.
local nurseries will carry over many varieties and can sometimes be very competitive with the box stores on price.
plants at low prices = a cheap product nurseryman sells quality plants, and he can not answer your questions
Nurseries cost more, but you get professional advice from someone well versed in the varieties grow best in the region.
In addition, support your local businesses whenever possible!
Nurseries are higher than Home Depot and much higher than WalMart, but the quality is higher. Once I bought a tree from Walmart that had no roots. Someone cut the roots off and stuck in a pot. They refused to give me a refund.
This will depend on the nursery, some are.But quality is usually always better.And they can answer almost any question you might have about what you buying.It is a good thing to make the owner of your friend.
