No plants are tacky! All great for cleaning up the air, which is what we all need.

Don't think Homebase offer a click n collect service anymore, just a store stock checker.

Why would the pot put you off the plant?

Because an actual clay terracotta pot is normally expensive and therefore the deal is hot.
Browsing the plants this seems to be the normal price too.

How can anyone think these look decent? These are cheap and tacky.

Thank you OP. Lots of these at Homebase Oldbury - bought 2 for either side of the front door!

Just wanted to say a massive thanks to the OP for posting this. I have two big pots ready to go either side of the front door. These small balls were too small for my needs but having looked at the link the large pyramids looked great value at £12.50. I checked local stock and most places seemed out of stock but I managed to track 2 down in Ashbourne store. Wasn't able to reserve online and thought 'wild goose chase', i'll get there and non in stock (despite the website saying they had 2). Anyway visited today and found the two plants priced at £25 each on the label but sure enough they scanned at £12.50 each. I think the staff were shocked / gutted they didn't get their hands on them.
So i'm now the proud owner of two large pyramid box plants for £12.50 each. Just got to try not to kill them now.
There may still be a few around if other people want them. There was still 1 at Doncaster last I checked.
