I usually take a water bottle with me to stores so if I see and subsequently buy a Bargain plant, I can give it water right away. 😅

This video was so fun! Thank you for your creativity and expertise. I really love your channel and your voice and pace is so relaxing to listen to

Kate I so appreciate you. Thankyou for always taking the time to explain what the plant is and how to care for it. I have learned so much from watching your videos. I decided at the age of 72 to take up gardening, go figure! So running into your channel was a God send. I also live at the Lowe’s bargain clearance rack, I figure if I wind up killing the plant due to my ineptness I won’t feel so bad! So today’s video was so informative not only how to revive but then how to put together the plants you bought in a pot. Thankyou thankyou thankyou my dear.

The plants are saying " yay !!! We were rescued, and it's Kate !!! " 😉 Excited for an update !!! I have a couple empty railing planters... I think I"ll try the same 😜

I’ve rescued “dead” plants from the grocery store, watered and had alot of new plants for free!!

“I can do want I want, it’s my show!” Love it! ❤😅

I love rescuing plants! Sometimes they don't make it, but most of the time I have happy plants!!

Kate, you won, good for you, I have been waiting for you to show the plants. I am so happy to have met you and Brian. Two happy friends.😊❤pat

Thank you Kate. I can’t wait to see an update on your containers ! 🌺💚🙃

I love the end of your video, that was so funny!!😂

Discount containers AND plants….winner winner! 💚💐

Save the plants! Loved this video, hopefully others will be brave and give it a try. Why not?

What an amazing rescue. Wish my nursery had 'sad' plants needing some love.

That was great. Cant wait to see the update. Soon as I enter my local nursery I beeline it for the discounted plants.

I LOVE THE CLEARANCE section!!!!!

You’re so welcome! And they are filling in beautifully… you would’ve never known they were destined for the dumpster.

I love what you found in the dead plant section! Beautiful colors and combos too Kate! I like your garden math, “Free 99”! It’s 109 again today, but I’m still going to get some and put them in my plant hospitals! ( Retired Nurse lol!) Still have the need to save lives….so now i resuscitate plants when I can! Thanks for the great inspiration again, and I’m just loving your new patio! It’s so cool and welcoming! 😊🪴👒🧤

I'm a believer! I always look at those 1/2 dead plants at the nursery and say nope! Never again. Another great video!

I’m 73 and learnt the hard way, I can no longer lift large, full ceramic pots 💪nope . I dropped one on my foot and ended up in emergency surgery and weeks of discomfort. I have since bought only light weight and put them all on wheels bases. Happy gardening. Great gardening tips, thanks, I’ll look out for the half price choices now that I know what to do about reviving them.

When I rescue plants-I always have my shaded area called the ICU Unit until I can transplant in the garden. Cheers from zone e 5b Canada 🇨🇦

Love this planter. One of my favorite things to do is resurrect clearance plants. I’ve done it with trees, shrubs, roses, perennials and annuals. Your container already looks good and is going to look amazing in a few days-and you have the satisfaction of knowing you took something headed for the landfill and gave it a new lease on life! And it’s so much fun to do something like this during the most miserably hot time of the year when I just don’t have the energy to do much else.

Love rescued plants! You just taught me to even try the totally dead looking ones 😂 I can't wait to see your update ❤

LOVED seeing all the plant saving, thank you for sharing. Happy to have found your channel! 😊

So happy to be found! And I just love a good rescue attempt. It feeds the soul.

This was so helpful. I never knew about the trick to place half dead plants in water for the roots to soak it up. Definitely trying that with those sad looking puppies from the nursery. Can't wait to see your rescues in a couple of weeks.

OMG ... you are a garden girl after my heart. Thank you for all this helpful and encouraging and inspiring information. I'm always on the hunt for a good rescue but never even thought to water them from the bottom - yikes !!! Now I know and will do better in the future - as will my rescues !!! Again, thanks for sharing it all !!!

Great tips! I’ve had so much luck with reviving plants by watering from the bottom.

Kate , you are talking my language ❤. I frequently buy plants off, what I call, the hospice aisle, is such a rush for me because I can see the potential after a little TLC and water.💦. I loved this video. Show me more….😅

Such a deal. Great job, wonderful!

thanks for sharing. this was a great video.

Thank you, Kate! I live in Southern California. It’s supposed to be 100 degrees today. It is the perfect weather for crispy plants. In addition to water deprived, I often find these plants are severely root bound and can’t soak up water well. I will just remove them from the pot entirely, rough up the roots and let them soak overnight. Then I will plant. Sometimes I have luck with that.

Good morning Kate, Great video! I love that you save the life’s of 🌱 plants!!! I guess your heat in Washington state is a dry heat! Mine is a humid environment 🥵. I love the trick of watering the flat, to soak up through the roots first. You amaze me on all your great findings, your excitement and the designs of your containers 🪴👒🪴❤️

Kate you will be happy to know I’m watching this morning in an absolute torrential downpour and a thunderstorm ⛈️ (thanks Beryl) from Hamilton ON 🇨🇦♥️ 5b. I’m a CPA so I love bargains! 😂😂

Great video Kate! I love “free 99”! They look great! Thank you!

You crack me up! I absolutely love bargain corner plants...I play that game all the time

Loved this video Kate! If I were making a video of my flowers this year, it would be called Bedraggled Grandma Attempts Resucitation of the Same Half Dead Flowers More Than a Few Times. I bought gorgeous annuals back in May, but my spring and summer hasn't gone according to plan and the flowers are still in their store cans. They are worse looking than your rescues. Some new growth is happening but the poor things have gotten too many sporadic waterings. Your video is just what I needed to muster up some energy to go out there and give those little buggers one last chance to grow. Thanks for some much needed inspiration to save my own plants from my own self! Lol 🤣

I can’t wait to see the update on these. I love rescuing plants. I don’t get after it as fast as I should though and they just end up with a funeral at my house instead. I’ll definitely find a shady corner for them next time.

Excellent video! Love your common approach advice and instruction. Thanks Kate Brenda🇨🇦

Kate, I have a friend that rescues plants all the time. Some garden centers have their half dead plants priced too high! I love your tip: choose plants that's limp not crisp! I"ll be practicing this in the future! Thanks!

Well hello new subscriber, Heidi!!! I’m so glad to find another lover of the rescue plant!

Thank you for doing a video on discount plants and tips on what to do!

Magical! I’m going shopping for clearance plants.

I have been unable to do much in the garden the last few weeks but your garbage plant video today inspired me to run to Lowe’s to see what was available at a discount. There were four racks but not much I could use. (I was really wanting perennials but no luck.) I did get a huge pot of deep pink and orange lantana for $10 (originally $29.99) and a pretty hosta for $7. We are smack dab in our blistering Alabama summer with temps expected near 100 for the next ten days. Add to that some pretty intense humidity and we don’t spend much time outdoors other than early morning forays to water. This lets me reassess what is working and what isn’t so that when temps cool I can make needed changes.

I will definitely look at the bargain bin differently going forward.

Greetings neighbor! Fun project and you ain't kiddin sister, it's Hot as Hades here. 90-104° in Lakewood. 🥵Make it stop! Blessings from down south. 💛🖤💛

Oh girl. This past weekend I had to stop filming because I had perspiration dripping into my eyes and I just couldn’t continue planting. This filming in the middle of summer is not for the faint of heart!

Thank you so much for this video!! I've rescued many perennials, but not many annuals. The information about watering from the bottom is so helpful!!!

Right in time. I planned to go out this morning to look for clearance plants. Eastern Washington and it’s been triple digits. So expect a good haul

You crack me up! Great video!

Really fun and informative ❤❤❤❤

I’m waiting to see your goodies!! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 love the bloopers. Hey! Show me your bloopers!! 😂🤣😂

i always have the worst luck transplanting zinnias. it seems like they can't bloom and root at the same time.

I love a good clearance plant!

Tractor Supply had garden plants marked down to 75%,i got really good plants too,Mandevilla, asparagus ferns, and geraniums,,

What a fun video!!

Just found your channel! You are so much fun and i love your rescue concept!

I just did a plant haul yesterday so much fun clip flowers off plant and feed. A new garden bed 70 % off yay😊

Thank you! So many good tips!

Gorgeous 🪴🪴🪴

I should practice this in my own garden and shop there , bad at buying plants and get to busy to plant them

Well, maybe my verbena CAN be resurrected. I will give this a try. In the past, I've plunged dry cans into a bigger pail of water, leaving it submerged long enough until the bubbles stop. I didn't know to wait a week before fertilizing. Good to know.

I'm headed to my Garden Center to see what's going on!

This is so great!! Thank you!!!

WOW Kate! Great informative video! From zeros to heros 😊 Thank you for this!

Yesterday went to Home Depot to buy shrubs and flowers for my garden. They had beautiful Cannas on clearance for only $2.50 Most of them were not even wilted. Just because they lost already flowers at that moment. Before that, all of these flowers were $20 a pot with 3. What a deal!

Your video is so me. The first place I go to when I visit a garden centre or DIY store that sells plants is the bargain plants area. They seem to put so much on sale that just needs a bit of water or has just flopped over because they haven’t given it some support. Their loss is my gain. I have also bought pots of plants that I know are perennials that are on sale as they’ve finished flowering and split them and planted them in the garden for the next year and gained multiple plants from one pot.

Heck yeah! Sometimes I find the best treasures that just need some time and love. Dividing a discount perennial is next level. Good job!

I was looking for some Bird of Paradise at Home Depot today, no bueno. But I did see several pots of Plumeria, like each one with two rooted cuttings, no inflow, so no way of knowing the colors. Nearby was a trash can with a 10” broken plumeria trunk, leaves wilting in the sun, and sap had already stopped bleeding. Just laying I. The trash, broke my heart. So I asked the clerk if I could have it out of the trash and take it home. She had to call the supervisor. NOPE…she told me I couldn’t have it, had to be thrown away and would have to buy a full plant. Is that dumb or what?!

My husband draws the line at dumpster diving for plants😂😅

"Beautiful little monster"... made me subscribe! Well, along with your simple Succinct instructions on how to revive these plants, it makes so much sense. I've always seen those sad racks of plants and thought, oh dang and passed them buy because I had no idea if they'd survive or not as I certainly have no green thumb, but now you've changed everything and I can't wait to visit those sad racks now! I've realized this makes my soul happy and I think is why I also like to do propagation vs planting seeds. I'm adhd and that's just way too much time for my brain. I've leaned I love to make "something" out of nothing and this is a perfect way to do this without hoarding my house with projects etc that I know I will Not do. Thank you!!!

Yes! It’s all about knowing which plants will spring back and which are truly a disaster. But that immediate gratification of when they bounce back?!? PRICELESS.

Ha! You crack me up! Nice goodies by the way 🤣👩🏼‍🌾🌻🥀🌻😂

Do you use a different criteria when buying dead and damaged perennials versus annuals? I rarely ever look at annuals unless it’s something special and early in the season but I’m always looking for perennials because I have a huge garden so I grow everything I can find seed for myself especially annuals. When I lived at my previous property I gardened solely in containers and didn’t have the space to grow all my plants so I was just wondering if you approached selecting and or your reviving differently? Love your container plantings and your sense of humor. Thanks

Wow that salvia and those zinneas!!!! I subscribed because im new to gardening but i love it . I go to those " dead racks" and think they are gonners but now ... I'm gonna go for it . Thank you !!!

Wow thanks for teaching us how rescue plants. I am so going to use all your tips.😊

I totally buy the half dead plants all the time. Not very often that one or two don't make it. So like Janie says: They are free! Garden math. ❤

Kate we love to see your “goodies” lol😂. You are so fabulous and fun. Love watching your channel. Should I fertilize in the hot days or wait for cooler summer weather? We are currently going through a heatwave in NJ and some of the plants are not at their best. I’ve been focusing on keeping them hydrated more than anything for the past two weeks. Hi from NJ 🪴 Ava

I have a flower that needs some trimming now. And all these plants are perennials. Year number 2 and they were all 99 cents. This year they are filling in and blooming. Time for trimming and shaping and fertilizer. I use plant tone and black cow compost. Only lost one plant because I for got to water it. Ugh! But, now it's time to love on them after our days of intense heat. We have had 3 out of 5 light rain days. Had to watch this one! I am so encouraged to try some more in my emptu pots. Oh Florida zone 9b/10.

The ending was EPIC!!!

"Destined for a dumpster" cracked me up!

I always like the way the crescent planters look, wish they were not as expensive but I’m going to save up. Do you have a link we should use to buy them so you get a little credit?

I’ve picked up many sale plants over time. The major problem that I’ve dealt with with some of them is insects. Check them over and be ready to deal with pests.

I’m ordering some of the blue crescent garden containers. I think the colors you have are beautiful and so convenient! Thanks for sharing:).

I love rescuing plants! Today I saw racks of plants they were throwing away at the garden centre at Home Depot 😢. They never bothered putting them on clearance and they wouldn’t let anyone rescue them.

Excellent Episode! 🎉Favorite line, “Free .99!”😅. Phrase would make a great title for a ‘dead and dumpster plant’ seasonal show! 🤔 😊🙏🏾

Such a fun video! I wish we had nurseries here where I could rescue some plants, however Home Depot and Lowe's do not allow it. They say it is an agreement with the growers. Booo!
