Supplier of large bowls?

Post by Cactus Kid »

Does anyone know of a supplier for large bowls suitable for cacti. I usually get mine from the Cactus Shop but they only go up to 35cm diameter. I need some of 40cm plus.

This is the type I usually get, but can't find any of the correct size.

I've just bought a supply of bowls from Manchester Branch. I believe that some of these will not be re-stocked once the present stock has sold, so it's worth having a look at their website. Excellent service.

IB40 is their largest Italian Bowl.
I'm assuming this is 40cm = 15.7 inches.

If I remember correctly the very large Italian Bowls were limited in quantity.

Probably best to contact Peter. He will know if there are any left.

As it says on the website order form - we are taking orders for these larger pots, but they will be posted out by someone from another branch....

As stuff is selling out I am adjusting the order forms & pictures to reflect what is still available.
