Re: cheap flower pots

From: "George R Stilwell, Jr." <grsjr at juno.com> on 1999.05.03 at 22:06:49(3328) Les, The best pots I know are by Anderson Die & Mfg. Co., Portland, Oregon, 1-503-654-5629. +More They are great because they're square and can be stacked to fit a great many in a small space. The sides are straight so no space is wasted. They come in various sizes but I like the 3 9/16 x 4 1/4 deep band and the 3 9/16 x 4 1/4 deep pot. The band is more trouble at planting because you have to keep the soil from falling out until it is compacted. (I use a small square of paper towel). But, when it comes time to remove the plant, just push the root ball from the bottom of the band. It comes out easily and intact. The pots are easy at planting time but have the usual problems when removing the plant. The bad news is they only sell wholesale, which means you have to have a tax number to buy from them. Like all wholesale pots, they're not expensive. I believe they come in cartons of about 268 pots. Find a friend with a tax number.
