Yes, I look forward to being creative with my own here sometime soon. I'm going to let these establish first though, before I go off the deep end! |

I am glad you did S/H for your plants. Phrags are mostly found on riverbeds they are sometimes immersed underwater when the river floods during monsoon rains....then they are dependent on morning dew during dry seasons....

Well... this is one plant, that split into two. The other 160 or so others are still the same! Time will tell though. I have another couple phrags that need to be re-potted very soon anyway, I might put them in s/h this weekend. My original plan was to have five or so as a starter-run. |

Looking good. S/H is great for Phrags. I have two in it and another I really think I should move to S/H.

I will note here that Ray is about the fairest in the land when it comes to service and shipping prices and terms, and I'm a very happy customer of his and will continue to be. My creativeness extends to wanting to make a "cool" pot - not one that is colder - one that is "chilll" or "rad" or whatever other term I should use here to get my point across!

Any plastic container can be used (glass too, but more difficult to drill).
I routinely cruise Wal-Mart, Bed, Bath, & Beyond, etc., for housewares, trash cans, and the like.
As soon as they come in from the manufacturer, and the folks at BARC can drill them, I will be offering a new 4.5" squat container - perfect for small plants, including African violets.
