Hello everyone! I am building gardens and large landscaped areas at my house and would like to have a large assortment of tropical plants without spending lots of money.

If anyone has plants that need some trimming or thinning out, please let me know. I am specifically looking for croton cuttings, cuttings of the shrubs with yellow flowers (I believe it is a family of the azalea plant), cutting of the shrub with a bundle of little red/pink flowers, any type of lilies or bulb flower plants, and really just anything that would add color and a tropical look.

Please let me know if you are able to share some of your amazing plants 🙂 Thanks!

I have a lot of faux frangipani, some crotons (gotta watch out for croton scale) and Anderson Double Red Hibiscus. Also a fragrant gardenia and some clerodendron starburst (limited).
Mid Island STX.

Check with the Dept of Ag at the fairgrounds. The plants they sell are quite affordable.

Yes I do quilt. However, I haven't had much time for it since I purchased a home here and am now in full remodel/fix mode 🙂
