No reason to buy many indoor plants; just track down someone who already has one, and take a cutting. I'd also recommend a quick internet search of starting plants from common fruits & veggies - I've got happy houseplants that started as orange seeds and avocado pits. Totally agree with kerc.

The greenhouses at UWS and UMD give away plants from time to time (by setting them out in the hallway with a "take one" sign). You likely don't wander by the greenhouses in your every day work life. So here are the two webpages (with contact phone numbers). Both women who run the greenhouses are super nice and have been very generous with me in the past. <a href="http://www.uwsuper.edu/acaddept/naturalsciences/researchfacilities/greenhouse.cfm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">UWS Greenhouse</a><a href="http://www.d.umn.edu/biology/greenhouse/VirtualTour/GreenhouseGeneralInfo.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> UMD Greenhouse</a> Having been affiliated with two different universities since I moved to town, I’ve not been wanting for houseplants.

I'd be willing to give a couple to you for free.

They’re both flower shops, though, and I don’t know how their prices compare to other places. Angela’s Bella Flora has houseplants. It is at 138 West First Street.
