Obtaining Shallow Pots
Hi All,
Does anyone know where to get shallow pots? Preferably plastic, about twice as wide as deep (say about 4 inches diameter, and 2 inches deep). These would be handy for cacti, since they become top heavy in standard pots. Any suggestions appreciated. Cheers -- Neil. |

You're after what is known as 'half pots' and they should be available in good garden centres. -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/edward/index.htm |

You're after what is known as 'half pots' and they should be available in good garden centres. Thanks Kay, but it seems that around here (West Glamorgan) there are no good garden centres, since I've been looking for these pots for many years with no success! I've also searched online, but none of the suppliers' sites I've found have featured half pots. In a fit of desparation some years ago, I phoned Sankey; the guy on the phone pointed out that pot size/shape is labelled with a single letter such as B or C, etc. (I think C was the shallower shape), but that the standard pots were by far the most common. Unfortuntately, he didn't know where I could purchase the shallow pots (Sankey only sold wholesale). I have got some lovely clay pots specifically for cacti, and made by Copenhagen's Botanic Gardens. I could do with an excuse to return :-) The search continues... -- Neil |

The British Cactus Society (or something like that) had some shallow plastic pots at Malvern last year but they were a bit flimsy for my purposes and had a ridged pattern round them. If anyone out there knows a source please enlighten us all. Martin R |
