All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

You can get ladybugs from most garden or even some hardware stores. If all else fails, https://www.naturesgoodguys.com/ is a great option
My experience is that most garden centers do not sell these, but occasionally they do. More reliable to find online.
I have a small pot, I want bugs but it wouldn't fit much. I'll check the local garden shop
Must be a location thing. All the garden places around here (Seattle) have them most of the time, and my local hardware store has them a lot of the time.
I also live in Seattle. We must frequent different shops.
Molbak's (RIP) had them, McLendon hardware has them, Swanson's has them. I mean garden shops (and probably nurseries now that I think about it), not usually indoor plant shops.
I believe you that Swanson's has them because they're huge, but I go there pretty often and have never actually seen them.
They were up by the registers last time I was there.
Guess my timing is off.
