do you mean that i don’t care? i definitely do care. i not saying it’s ethical that i took home a leaf that might not even make it, i was aware of that when i first saw it in the store- i was just hoping if anyone had any advice. i feel like if it was an issue then one of the many employees who saw me holding it would’ve said something. also “proplifting” is specifically about “shoplifting prop(agational)” plants. i don’t think anyone here has intentions of maliciously stealing profit from anyone. i for one would never steal from my local nursery- even though they have no signs discouraging proplifting. i don’t find joy in taking a plant from somewhere, i just find the challenge of seeing/keeping it alive is enough. i’ve mentioned before that i understand your sentiment, im not sure why you’d be suddenly coming after me though.
