Get them free or inexpensively from local native plant nursery. Plug up hole with a dab of mud or pinching the ball. Allow to dry. Now walk around to empty fields, boring sidewalks, and vacant lots. It's amazing what a lightly lobbed luv balm can do when it rains or when it finds the right meteorological conditions to sprout and bloom.
