Plants for new tank

[Road8514]

I am looking for a couple good beginer plants. I currently have a 10gal tank that has a false eggcrate bottom. I am also going to be putting togather a 50gal front slider. I would like to get a brom. or some other plants. I would like to know what kinds of plants I will be able to find locally at like homedepot or another flower shop.
thanks

Pothos is a great plant and I've seen it at home depot.

Home Depot does usually have broms and pothos but for a good selection of plants your most likely going to have to either find a tropical plant shop in your town or shop online. Good Luck

Not necessarily. All the plants i have (excluding moss and 3 broms) I bought from homedepot / lowes:
creeping fig
Pink stars
Angel wings
Wandering Jew
Neo. Annik
Button ferns
Peperomia
Pliea

Deli, I can't believe you found all those at Home Depot/ Lowes. All the ones in my area have a pretty pathetic selection of indoor plants. I would save a bunch of money on shipping costs for plants if they carried anything close to the stuff you have found there.

yea. They have indoor tropical greenhouses at both places.

Do they have a season for tropical plants? My home depot is pretty huge, but I never see peperomia plants =/.

The big chains usually have a much better selection in the summer. It allows them to keep any overflow outside.

Aren't all Home Depot plants treated pretty hard with chemicals?
