Yeah, go ahead and do this somewhere like Home Depot, but most garden centers and nurseries are just small businesses. They need that income and lose a lot more money from this practice than one would expect (plants can get pretty expensive).
Like, there's this rhododendron garden + nursery near me which has some truly amazing varieties. Things that you can only get there or in Bhutan, for example. They actually send people to these remote places to find rare varieties. Would I love to take a tiny cutting from basically everything there? Absolutely. But no. I pay because they're amazing and I want to support them.
