Now, that would be the part of working at Lowe's that I would love. I just
never thought of it as 'a sticky pot syndrome'...
I understand.. I have plants call out to me at stores quite often.
I have always wondered if I pick them, or they pick me.. :-))

Well, I thought I detected an old disease showing tell tale signs lately.
First pots of dianthus stuck to my hands. Then a little red dianthus
called
Persian star stuck to my hands, in fact, two of them stuck tight and I had
to pick them up. A pussywillow stuck next. Then a red dogwood followed
me home, followed by a large three gallon pot of Double file viburnum.

Then of all things, a TREE called a Forest Pansey redbud and a Sand cherry
stuck to my truck and came home, and today as I dragged my beaten and
tired
body thru the nursery at Lowes where I work, a pot of President Grevy
lilac
(a blue lilac.......), a deep pink with deep red eyed phlox, a Espirea
Shirobana Spirea, and a Espirea Hoja Tostada "Crisp Leaf Spirea" flung
themselves into a cart and insisted I take them home with me. They sat
proudly in the floorboard of the car that I was driving instead of the
truck..........this sticky pot syndrome is beginning to clutter up the
middle terraced portion of my slope................I need a good twelve
step
program. Think there's hope, Zhan?? GBSEG
madgardener up on the ridge, back in fairy holler where I can hear the
peals
of twinkly laughter at my weakness, overlooking English Mountain in
Eastern
Tennessee, zone 6b,Sunset zone 36 where I'm so tired I can't even think of
planting the new babies yet.........but I will dream of it tonight and
hopefully by Monday I will have them nestled in the soils here.
