First thing I would do is look in your inventory, there may already be some in there. Then tp around to all of the places that give out free stuff and see what you can find. Can't think of the names of them right now, but someone else may be able to.

Heart Garden Centre

thanks guys.

i think i saw some foliage along the way that when cursed over said something of the tune to: " you can copy these just don't distribute, etc."

thanks a ton for the rec'.
amazing thing this all is.

I have to agree heart is great... also check out botanical... very realistic designs.

As you are wandering around, if you see something you like, right click on it, select "More >" then select "More >" again, then select "Inspect", then, click on "See Creator Profile". Usually under the profile "Picks" or "Classifieds" they will have the location of their store, but not always. Then you can go to their store and buy things! It doesn't have to be just plants.

Checking the creator of an object is one of the best tips in second life. You can usually tp to the creators shop or you can check out the creators picks and travel to some of her favorite places..Great tool
