Home Depot is normally very good about accepting returns on plants that have died within the time frame listed on the receipt. I believe some are 90 days and others up to a year. It was explained to me that returns could not be done on plants killed in the recent frost. The manager explained that he lost 20k in plants himself and that frost is \"an act of God\" and he could not accept the returns. I was surprised by this since the summers are hellish here and he accepts returns on plants that have withered and died in the AZ sun. I did not argue with him. I simply asked if he could throw away the bag of dead plants. About 5 minutes later he walked up behind me and explained that he could offer a gift card for the most expensive of the plants killed in the frost. I appreciate that he didn't let me leave the store disappointed. I will also head back to use the GC when I'm sure the AZ winter has is done  with \"it's acts of God\".
