I had a wild idea.
What if
We could charge people to come and pick up all the useless weeds from your yard?
You know, the ones you would have to pick yourself
The ones that keep appearing to your backyard in dozens
The ones you would just ditch in to the carbage can
Or burn
Or just kill with some herbicides
Or cut down with a machete
Or nuke in to oblivion
I know it's a stupid dream
But there's always hope
Maybe one day...

Well kids, today we will learn the importance of a decent pot when buying a plant online.
I understand that when theres an especially ugly plant in an especially beautiful pot you're going to want to keep the other but...
"Pot not included" oh gee, I was hoping to add that fugly 90's Pauliina pot to my collection of fugly pots from the 90's!
I'm guessing you're not going to include that vase in this purchase.
Which means you're askinf 5 euros for couple of stems in water*.
*Excluding the water
Our ongoing series of depressed Aloes contin-
wait
WAIT
is that
a fucking bucket?
sigh
I guess i'll bring my plastic bag then

Step one, acquire dates
Step two, see that you have way too many, way too big dates.
Step three, be kind to your dates and don't do the "natural selection" of removing the weak ones.
...YET.
Step four, see how happy your dates are in their new home and abandon them in the backyard for summer.

So you want to make some easy money online with your crap plants, but you're not ready to let go of your lovely bio waste green friend?
You can always sell cuttings!
This way you can get the most of your cash crop, just divide it to many wealth increasing parts!
How about a piece of Sansevieria for a tenner?
It's not like you can use that ten euros to buy a whole plant from any plant selling store!
(actually, the store I work in sells a whole snake plant for 8 euros)
Also, Sansevieria's only action in life is to pop out these tiny copies of itself so if someone is ready to pay you this much for a cutting you'll be millionaire in no time!
This one is also a very fine specimen of "hey, look at what I found in my bio waste-basket!"
It doesn't even have roots!
Or leaves!
How can someone be this desperate to get Pothos for oneself that they would pay three euros for this,
(If you're one of those people then I should tell you that I own two Pothos(es?) and I'm willing to sell you every single stem out of them in the mere price of 2,50 euros!)
Don't let this macro-enhanced picture fool you.
This plantling is just couple of centieters tall and doesn't even have roots yet so its useless.
This is like adopting a baby and they send you an embryo.
So you want to make some easy money online with your crap plants, but you're not ready to let go of your lovely bio waste green frie...

I was at an anonymous car fixing shop and happened to see this poor thing leaning to the wall in the corner.
Didn't look too bar fom far, thanks to the pot,
Lechuza Quadro with metallic shine would make even the ugliest weed look fancy.
It's obvious they've put some effort in the interior green design at the start.
Meaning, they bought the plant and the pot from professional store and then forgot about it forever.
A closer look will reveal the ugly truth.
With no proper care after the planting, the soil level is ridiculously low and fallen leaves are just cleaned back in to the pot just so they're not on the ground.
The amount of dust on the leaves was also quite fancy, tho I couldn't get a good pic about it while trying to be sneaky and take pictures unnoticed.
So the lesson is you should probably spend some money for the care too.
Plants just don't stay good with no effort.

Some interior green design at anonymous stairway somewhere in Finland.
The plastic flowers in the wicker basket really add a nice touch to this depressing display.
Too bad it was covered in ten years worth of dust.
I'm just kidding, it was horrible.
If this sort of a plant in this sort of a pot is your idea of "livening up" your stairwell, I suggest you just better leave it.
It's better have an empty depressing staircase than depressing staircase with depressing plant thats crying for help from the people passing by the window.
Give me a pair of scissors and five minutes and maybe I can save this unfortunate creature.
Or send it to the plant heaven.

The dreaded number 13 has arrived upon us!
So let us celebrate by shopping some unlucky Dracaenas!
I can never understand how people just keep those brown leaf tips intact like they're some sacred part of the plant. The tips are dead, cut them off.
Your plant wont die from it.
"Scented-leaved dracaena for sale"
Erm.
The "fragrans" in the name "Dracaena fragrans" points to the flowers that are SERIOUSLY so smelly you can't not notice them.
The leaves do not smell of anything but the dust you've left on them.
Why try to get money from just one ugly plant when you can just cut it in half and get money fromTWO ugly plants!
This poor sap just looks very very tired.
"Normal sized Dracaena for sale. In good shape."
Eeh..
Are we looking at the same plant?
What is normal sized?
If this is your "good shape" I'd love to see your "bad shape" plants.
And again, BROWN LEAF TIPS ARE DEAD AND YOU CAN CUT THEM OFF.
This is just
I don't even
What
WHAT A DEAL. ONLY 10 EUROS!
I'm calling dibs on this bargain!
The dreaded number 13 has arrived upon us! So let us celebrate by shopping some unlucky Dracaenas! I can never understand how peopl...
