Dead Plant + No Receipt = Fail

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

Normally, I couldn't agree more.

However, apparently the Orange Apron DOES have a return policy on plants of up to one year.

With a receipt.

As does the swamp. We guarantee all our live goods for a year after purchase, because they're such "high quality" or something.

See, plants that are dried up because the meat byproducts working in the garden center don't water them, and have dead blossoms all over because they don't bother pruning or deadheading either, are high quality. Who knew?

(Well, that and there's no cameras pointed at all the plants that just sit out in the open in the parking lot every night...)

Where are you again? And can I borrow a wheelbarrow?

Kidding.

That describes the K-mart down the street from me.

Granted I have the exact opposite of a green thumb

You and me both. Hell, I kill plants just by looking at them. One time when I was in Grade 3 the teacher had given everyone some bean seeds to grow into plants as part of a class project, and I went through 3 plants before she finally gave up.
She ended up giving me some pepper to grow instead, and it miraculously survived long enough for me to complete the project and take it home.

...It then died 3 days later.

I wonder if they pull this sort of stunt with the florists. They call in after a dozen roses die so they can get their money back?
