Thanks!
B&Q have some great plants on occasion. I think they must just buy up job lots because they tend to have a load of pretty common plants, but every now and again will have a wild card. They’re GREAT for mature golden pothos too.

Wilko are good for cheap, common plants, but in my local store treat them so badly (why not keep tropical plants outside in December in Yorkshire?).

Ikea also varies so much according to where you are. Manchester? Awesome. Leeds? Crap. WHY IKEA, WHY? Also, every palm I’ve ever bought from there has had scale. I don’t know if that’s just a palm thing or an Ikea thing.

I googled why are house plants so expensive and found this piece which was wonderfully written with wit and great advice. A lovely read. Thanks! Some possible additions: Wilko, Ikea, & B&Q although not bought plants in over 2 years.
