Yea, I got the variegated one for $8 last year and it was in bloom so I wasnt complaining it doesnt look perfect.

Shame about the racks. They work really well except I need to place down eggcrate but I need something to cut it with.

That must be the worst stuff to cut. I literally spent hours with a hacksaw because Home Depot refused to cut it for me.....and told me it was easy to cut. Yeah right ! I swore I would never do it again......that is until I got new racks.
If you find an easy, efficient way to cut it - please let me know. There must be a way, or a tool.

I just use either Needle-nose pliers (with the cutting edge) or Diagonal pliers. It's pretty easy and definitely faster than using a saw.
