Asking for clippings

I have autism with level two support needs + many other disorders that make it difficult and challenging to be social

I've recently started to work on my social skills with baby steps (going out by myself and buying a treat for myself) but im still very anxious when I talk to people.

What's the best way of going about asking a place like an office or a neighbor if I can have a cutting of their plant to propagate? I feel like asking someone I don't know to give me a cutting is so weird and it makes me clammy even thinking about it. Anyone know how to phrase it in a way that doesn't make me sound like a weirdo???

Found a purple heart plant on the sidewalk with a few already snapped stems ☺️☺️

Walked to a gas station to buy something to improve my social skills and got myself an extra treat

New leaf growing on my caladium! It must be my lucky day, because my philodendron has like a million new leaves and my monstera is growing one today!

Went on a hike today with my family and found some very pretty fungi!

Was at Shelby Farms. Does anyone know what the last one is? It was so cool

Found a slime mold (?) growing in an old Tupperware box in a car. I know slime mold isn't a fungus butttt idk where else to put it

Unfortunately I am not interested in opening it to get a better picture. It stinks

Just got one for my birthday from Lowe's. Anyone have tips to help her grow big and strong?

I've wanted one for a while and this is my first, and I would appreciate advice on how to care for her!! Mainly worried about that new leaf with black spots on it and her overall health. She does have a few good aerial roots tho !! I also have a bettergro orchid mix to repot her in soon.

My girl looks so happy! Don't worry about that bottom browning leaf, its an old one.

I've had her for almost a month now and she's put up so many new leaves and two are unfurling now!

Vinca vine water prop finally growing another root!

I was actually just about to ask for help because she wasn't growing any other ones but I saw a little baby when I checked!!

She's not even two months old and she's already such a cuddle bug!

The only problem is that I rescued her so young and she thinks I'm her mama 🥲having her try to nurse on me is a small price to pay
