Agree plant purchasing authority with a household gardener
A gardener may notice gaps in planting or suggest replacements, but purchasing authority should be explicit. Before adding shopping to the role, decide who selects plants, approves spending and checks deliveries. Keep suggestions separate from permission to buy so the household retains control over its garden plan.

Describe the purchase request
Ask for the plant name if known, intended location, quantity and reason for the suggestion. If identification is uncertain, the gardener should say so. The employer can seek appropriate supplier advice before deciding. Avoid asking the worker to promise how a plant will perform in an unfamiliar position simply to justify the purchase.
Set approval before collection
Confirm the approved items and any agreed spending limit before the gardener visits a supplier. Explain what to do when the exact item is unavailable. A different size or variety may change the original plan, so substitutions need a clear rule. The gardener should not have to spend personal money while waiting for a household decision.
Check the delivered items together
Compare the delivery with the approved list and note visible discrepancies promptly. Decide who contacts the supplier about issues. Keep receipts in the agreed place and record any items not yet planted. This prevents confusion between plants awaiting placement, items intended for return and existing household stock.
Review purchases against the garden plan
After several purchases, check whether they fit the available space and maintenance time. Repeated impulse requests can create more work than the original gardening brief allowed. Ask whether the existing plants need attention before adding more. The employer should decide the overall direction rather than letting separate shopping trips become an accidental redesign.
A practical example to adapt
Hypothetical example: a gardener proposes three plants for an empty border and writes down their intended positions. The employer approves two after checking suitability with the supplier. When one is unavailable, the gardener returns without substituting. The missing item remains on the request list until the employer decides.
