​Succulents at a Fraction of the Cost - October 2019

​I recently went to a succulent/cactus display and sale. I was surprised at the cost of each small pot for $5 - $15. It is worth asking on your BUY NOTHING Facebook group or community group for cuttings of succulents and cactus (and even empty garden pots). People are more than willing to give you bits of their plants and in a dry sunny spot, these thrive. You can display them in an old rusty wheelbarrow (off the verge collection) or displayed together on a pallet shelf and they look stunning. All for no cost. You can also walk down during green verge collection and pickup plants for propagation when they are being discarded. Win-win for you and the environment.
