Prices of tomatoes and peppers in your area [View all]

[NJCher]

I visited a local nursery and saw plants outside at a Walmart.

I think the prices were high. A tomato plant 4 inches tall was $3.50 and $3.44 respectively. You save a big whopping six cents at Walmart. Same prices for peppers.

Flats were $16–impatiens, alyssum, etc. at the nursery.

A raised bed with 9 tomato plants would be $31.50 and a raised bed of 12 peppers is $42.

I have my own plants because for me it’s not just one bed of tomatoes—it’s more like 20 (my own plus community garden).

Plants at Walmart—some were healthy but others were dead. They don’t care because they just return dead plants and get a credit.
