I hate math. I measured by big pots again, but mine aren't for permanent, only for growing on when necessary. I measured 14" across the top, 10" across the bottom, and 14" in height. Assuming a radius of six I calculated about 7.3 gallons. I can imagine that being close. The sticker in the pot said capacity was about 1.25 cubic feet, and that conversion to gallons was saying over nine gallons. THAT I don't believe. Of course, I am pretty spatially challenged, too. And stink at math. I am bowing out of this conversation.

I am still looking for planting pots. I can trade you for Autumn Sedum plants already in pots. I am located between Federal Way and Auburn and am trying to be ready for pot plantings in early spring. Write me: Donna1952_1@Juno.com. Thanks!

Dig him back up and give him a good bath. Then try and separate the roots and replant. You may have several plants from that clump. Depending on you soil conditions this is what happens to most plant not just peonies when you did a hole and put amendments in the hole and not the surounging area. I used to do this and then wondered why the plants failed. A short version of what happened is that you created a pot by digging and incorporating material just in that area. If you have "good" prepared beds this method will work. If (and I know others will throw up their hands in horror) you have thick soil just dig the hole, cut with a knife or shovel ridges in the side of the hole, add a very little fertilizer to the bottom of hole and material taken out of hole (placing on an old sheet or tarp to mix will work), plant. This method allows the roots a lighten soil to establish roots in then the roots will push into the surrounding soil. The amend the soil in the hole makes the plant want to use the amended soil up before moving into the surrounding area. Now that you do have the amended bed to replant in I think your first baby will do very well after you remove some of the twisted root material. You can give the extra to a friend and make them happy to by sharing the wealth.

Michael I don't know how many you're looking for, but the company at the link below has white pots in bulk. They have a page with distributors, including several in California. ~james Here is a link that might be useful: dillen
