Here is another good deal available online at Walmart. I just ordered a set of 8 of the Homz rope handled 17 gallon containers for $25.88, or at a price of $3.22 each. Free shipping to the store. Walmart #: 550893820 This may be a typo but I am going to hold them to it. __________________ Now in South Florida (Pots) Current Stable of Figs: Chicago Hardy (Lowes), Lebanese Red (Harvey C), Makedonia Dark (Bass), Ronde de Bordeaux (KK), Kesariani (strudeldog), Marseilles VS Black and Figo Preto (pawpawbill) Wish List: Violette de Bordeaux, St. Rita, Bethlehem Black, Maltese Falcon, Black Beauty 10

Thanks for the information. I always like to learn from those with more experience. I am also looking at plant stands to elevate my pots off of the concrete and perhaps reflective foil to wrap the pots. Has anyone seen some good results to avoid overheating the roots? __________________ Now in South Florida (Pots) Current Stable of Figs: Chicago Hardy (Lowes), Lebanese Red (Harvey C), Makedonia Dark (Bass), Ronde de Bordeaux (KK), Kesariani (strudeldog), Marseilles VS Black and Figo Preto (pawpawbill) Wish List: Violette de Bordeaux, St. Rita, Bethlehem Black, Maltese Falcon, Black Beauty 10
