comparing pot sizes
Is there a table that compares pot sizes at all?
Does 1 litre equate to a standard cm measurement? Looking to buy a lot of 5in ones to pot stuff up for a NGS plant sale and not sure what that would be in cm or square!! Janet -- Janet Tweedy Dalmatian Telegraph http://www.lancedal.demon.co.uk |

Janet A 1 litre pot is about 5" diameter. *But you can get 1 litre pots as 'long toms', which are narrower but longer and which we use for sweet peas. Trehane have a handy table on their site which shows the size pots their Camellias are sold in:http://www.trehanenursery.co.uk/plan...nd-pricing.php and these people sell qite a variety: *http://www.thegardensuperstore.co.uk...ght_Plant_Pots.... -- Sachawww.hillhousenursery.com Shrubs & perennials.

I have tried www.plantcell.demon.co,uk but again they only do the smaller square ones. (Hope you got the plants okay, my Canarina canariensis seeds have germinated so I am now trying to encourage them to grow) Janet -- Janet Tweedy Dalmatian Telegraph http://www.lancedal.demon.co.uk |

writes We get our pots from Munros but I suspect they only send them out in the hundreds or more. How many do you need? Oh thanks Sacha, but we need only about 150 - 300, especially square ones and Judy is trying to keep the cost down as it's for the NGS Open day:) I think there were one or two auction lots on Ebay that i might try for her.

Trying to squash a largish amount of geranium or whatever into those pots isn't easy! Janet -- Janet Tweedy Dalmatian Telegraph http://www.lancedal.demon.co.uk |
