2. Home Depot secrets: The return policy for plants is extremely generous
If you are a plant lover, this is one of the Home Depot secrets that is just for you. And even if you are not such a big fan of plants but want to add a few to your home or garden, this can also help.
The whole process of planting a garden is a tremendous investment, and even if you are careful about what you are doing in terms of watering, lighting, and fertilizer, the result might not be what you were waiting for.
Sometimes the results might be unexpected and even disappointing. The good part is that if you decide to buy your plants from Home Depot, you will not suffer the consequences at all. At least money-wise.
If you buy, for example, a tree, a shrub, or a perennial from them and your plant dies in less than a year, you can dig it up and return it to the store.
Also, keep in mind that this policy applies to online shopping too. If you buy a plant online and it arrives at your door damaged, you can return it within three days. After that, you will receive a replacement, minus any additional taxes.
