It’s literally cool and good.
The mods will delete posts and comments that promote taking trimmings or leaves without asking permission from the employees.
They’re not even secretly cool, sadly. Check this modpost
It is borderline traumatic when people take care of living things and someone steals from them. Would you walk up to a dog with scissors and take a clump or fur? Hopefully not. Even if it’s a shitty big box store, you need to ask for permission to take things away without paying for them. Absolutely NO taking from live plants even if they’re in bad condition. Buy the plant if you want the plant. I feel like I cover this every few months so I’ll leave that be.

it really is. I promise the plant is ok with this and, in fact, actively wants you to do this. this is literally its entire purpose in life.
