Tropicals & Tender Perennials: What is the best Pot Size, 1 by

Hi all, I know I have mentioned this container before and some of
you might remember it from the cut tire I showed several weeks back.
I get these 19 gallon rope handle tubs at Walmart. They only come out
with this color of black during Halloween. I place my larger (tall brugs)
in them and they work out great! I drill holes into the sides of them for
drainage about an inch from the bottom.

They are easily moved around by dragging them by the handles. The
bottoms are wide enough to keep the plant stable and not topple over
from a wind. Some of the plastic ones are odd colors but someone told
me about this new spray paint called fusion that is specially made for
plastic and you can cover them up that way.

Here at our Wally world they are priced at just under $5.00 and for me that is a great price for such a large container. Scooterbug said they are called Muck buckets and are used in her part of the country to haul around Muck!!! LOL
