Small square pots

Post by steveresz »

Does anyone have a source for small square pots (2” or 5 cm or so)? I bought some a couple of years ago from Desert Rose Soils but they don’t seem to be trading any more. Thanks.

I bought recently from the Manchester BCSS source mentioned by Chris.
Excellent pots, good service. Why import, unless you are after thousands?

They're 5 cm, not 2"! :mrgreen:

And on the more serious note, they match the pretty sturdy 20x20 cm trays sold by cact.cz perfectly. I'm pretty sure less than 100 would already be profitable.
