Today's frugaldoings..........I stopped @ a house where someone had THROWN OUT a full-size wheelbarrow, and a garden wheelbarrow type tool caddy, etc......was going to take them, and some guy (I guess) had beaten me to them. He came outta nowhere, with a story about buying all of the items. (There was no one in sight).......anyway, I did get one of those racks you attach to your car, to carry your bike, and a huge, heavyduty litterbox.
Around the corner from this place, was a yard with beautiful variegated philodendren growing up one of their palm trees. I knocked on their door to see if I could have a cutting, and they said to take a few, cause they were going to trim it back anyway.
This should grow fast, and be really pretty when it gets going. I ended up with 12 plants, after separating those cuttings!
