12 plastic plant pot 12" green bulb pan for orchids – QuarterAcreOrchids

12 plastic plant pot 12" green bulb pan for orchids – QuarterAcreOrchidsThis 12" green plastic bulb pan is really monumental! Big and sturdy for your really big spreading orchids. Perfect because they aren't as deep as a traditional 12" flower pot, so the mass of medium around the roots is less. This allows the medium to actually dry out between watering, which is important for healthy orchid roots. It also means less medium, which means less weight. This bulb pan measures 12" across the top and a smidge over 9. 5" across

My apologies for the exorbitant price on these.. the first batch I got I bought off another greenhouse that was closing, so I suspect I got quite the deal.    Having to buy for real was quite a shock.   Not sure why this size is so much more expensive than the others, but they are big and heavy, so use a lot of plastic, I suppose.
