So it is OK to steal plants

I took the discarded plants that they had pulled out of the beds. They had to do that in order to put in new plants. They do this every quarter. If you're lucky, and enjoy gardening, you will be in the spots where they're doing their quarterly switching and get your pick of the discards before they bag them and throw them in the trash.
There is usually nothing wrong with any of the plants, and if they're not unrooted and burned by the sun after sitting there without soil, water, shade, for a few hours, then they can be easily replanted in your own garden and give you a few months of enjoyment.
They don't sell the ones they pull out of those beds, they throw them in the trash. It's a HUGE waste of money and I can't stand that they do that to perfectly good, healthy growing plants.
