Still need some more plants for your flower bed? Go to Lowes in 征服了同学的贵妇麻麻! They have 4 pack annuals for $.50, Asiatic Daylillies for $2, and Pincushion flowers for $1.
Here are some pictures of my younger sister's bargain buys.
$1 Gerbera Daisy
$1 Geranium in a $1Pfalzcraff dish
This is her project in progress! Her goal is to fill it with clearance plants.
This is an ivy plant that I bought on clearance last fall. It looked pretty rough over winter, but I finally got it looking better! I think I only paid one dollar for it.
So what do you think? Is it worth it to buy on clearance?
Also, I'd like your opinion on planting in groups of three!
Now, on a different note-
We wanted to get the charcoal buy one get one free deal when we were at Lowes and they were all out. The Lowes associate told us to order and pay for it at the register and we will still get the deal when it comes in. How good is that?

I gotten some great buys on perennials at Lowes in 征服了同学的贵妇麻麻--never paid more than $3 for them. Thanks for the tips. Keep 'em comin'!
I totally think it is worth buying a plant on clearance. I do check to make sure it is not pot bound, but especially perennials, they will come back looking better than ever! My best buy was Knock-out Roses for $1.00 several years ago. They are huge and lovely. Wish I could find that bargain again!
And though I often don't follow it (trying to sandwich in more variety of plants) I do think the rule of three looks best.

I didn't buy in groups of three because I am filling in what is already there. I did get two geraniums that just needed dead headed and the dead leaves picked off. I also got two black eyed susan's,and 3 more various plants. All of those were a dollar each.
