Variety of plant cuttings (Hanover Park)
I have a bunch of plant cuttings to give away: Egyptian Star flower: Produces clusters of small purple flowers. I take mine outside in the summer. Pictured first - a portion of the mother plant. The cutting doesn't have flowers, and it has a nice root - it has been in water for awhile. But it looks a little sad. It would be happier if it was planted. Low to medium to high light. Wandering Jew cuttings: 4-5 rooted. Would do well in low to medium light. Plant should become bushy . small jade plant cutting - No photo - about 6 inches tall - a few roots. 3 bamboo plant cuttings. Take all three - they can be planted in the same pot. They like lots of light and water. Currently about 2 feet tall. They can be trimmed. All are in plastic zip loc bags with the tops open. Near the intersection of Stearns and County Farm Rds in Hanover Park. Please give a 2 hour or less pick up window during a time when the temperature is plant friendly.

shelf unit - big (Elmhurst center)
This is a large, heavy, solid wood shelf unit. It is not a modern entertainment center that can hold a big TV. It was previously used for books and a component stereo system. It's 6ft tall, 6ft wide and 20" deep. There's a large cupboard on the bottom that can hold full sized LP record albums. It's not like new - it's a bit battered but is solid. It's 2 pieces - upper and lower sections. I can deliver it within about 10 miles of Elmhurst but you'll need 2 strong people to carry the 2 parts into your house. I'm guessing well over 50 lbs for each section. It needs a good home.

Philodendron plant cuttings (Hanover Park)
I have 9 philodendron plant cuttings to give away to new homes. Each one is in a plastic zip lock bag. They range in length from 2-4 feet. So, they stick out from the top of the bag. Water will spill out if the bag is tipped or falls over. Cut from a descendant of a plant that came from a 40 year old plant. Strong and healthy with no bugs. Philodendron plants are hardy, and do will in low to moderate light. It should be rooted for awhile in water. It might be ok if you plant it right away with rooting powder ( a plant hormone powder that encourages root growth). Please give a 2 hour or less pick up window during a time when the temperature is plant friendly (above 40 degree minimum) It is recommended that you have a way to stabilize the bag so water stays in. Near the intersection of Stearns and County Farm Rds in Hanover Park
