Re deep pots: I find that getting a narrow wastebasket (plastic) various sizes from either Wa-Mart or similar store and drilling about 3-4 holes ion the bottom with a half-inch drill or burning the holes in with a hot wire works very well for tall bulbs such as crinum and hymenocallis Using a small torch on solme of them enables one to turn the top edges down to form handle for lifting and moving. . Some experimentation is needed to find which plastic ones do what. Adam in Glenview IL.

At the website for stuewe and sons they have a TPOT3 7.75 in wide (20cm) and 12.5 in deep (32cm) or the TPOT4 7.75 in wide (20cm) and 18 in deep (46cm) Anyone have a pro or con for the different depth? I am thinking deeper is better but i dunno. Tanks fer da hep.
