Plucking is wrong anywhere. Taking fallen off props at an independent nursery? Only of theyre cool with it. Big box store? Have at it
What is the charge? Taking a leaf? A succulent aloe vera leaf?

I’ll bet my next paycheck that this store also sells “root starter”.

Let me guess buying a plant, taking it home, taking a few clippings once it’s healthy and giving them away is also theft like torrents.

In some cases, it can be. Certain varieties are protected by intellectual property law and whoever owns the rights to it (probably Monsanto, tbh) can sue you if you propagate and distribute unauthorized copies.
What a shitty, fucked up world we live in…

The “PLEASE” in front of “DO NOT DO IT” is telling me this probably isn’t actually illegal, let alone enforceable, and they just want to scare you.
