If you've called every garden center near you and haven't found any, then
the answer is "no". However, you might get back on the phone and if it
sounds like you're speaking to a clerk (i.e.: teenager with summer job), ask
for the owner or manager. Lots of unsold plants die in their pots by the end
of the season. Someone might let you stop by and take the pots. You might
have to take the dirt, too, but so what?

seem
to locate any. I am looking for standard black 1 gallon pots.
