This is likely to prevent people from cutting the plants and later saying they picked up a fallen bit.
Yup, I doubt they actually care about people picking stuff off the floor.

In the corpora-fascist future, all plants are copyrighted variants and you merely purchase a license to possess one plant.
This is already happening. There's a company who copyrighted a breed of pineapple. They charge $400 for said pineapple and the company intentionally chops the top completely off, so that it cannot be propagated. Normally, you can take the green part of a pineapple, put it in the ground, and a few years later you'll have a new pineapple. It's ridiculous.

A time-limited license for Plant as a service. It’s a subscription model.
PaaS would be too-often confused with "platform as a service", it needs to be Vegetation as a Service (VaaS).
Doubly funny in dutch cuz vaas is Dutch for vase.

Maybe it is illegal in the sense that some succulents ARE invasive species
I do know that people go to garden shops looking for free material for growth lying on the ground, which id argue is unnecessary. Most people who own plants or a garden will happily share with you the fact if you show the ittyest bittiest piece of interest in them, and also share plants as well.
Hell I regularly give out succulent saplings for free or as a gift to friends and people I meet.
So yeah, you can just ask man, it's no biggie
Someone in my town has a big clump of some kind of tall ruffly flower that stands on a stalk amidst tall upwards-sticking blade leaves. Very neat and it seems to grow quickly to fill the area every spring. I've been too nervous to ask for a bit of it, but maybe I can buck up some courage and ask.

If I want to steal from you I will. You can try guilting me all you want but I just don’t care.
"no PLEASE don't spend half your paycheck here then get something for free :((( Pay me more money? I report u!!!!!"
Anyone know what store this is?
the home despot or blowes probably.
Plant props aren't a basic necessity. The plant shop doesn't decide your paycheck.
If you want to steal food from Walmart, go head, but don't feel entitled to whatever you want.
In all likelihood the business is just going to throw away the plant props and they were going to be wasted anyways. So I don't see the problem with taking them
Just buy something from the garden supplier then. Farmers are getting pinched from both sides of the economy.
I'm certain you meant "steal" ?
fixed. Phone grammar mistake
