Good evening gardeners.
A job I have been putting off for ages...

any reason behind why I should use a deep pot rather than a 'regular depth'?

Cheers, Tony.

Do I deduce, you�ve washed your used pots and wondering whether you should keep the tall ones? If so what could you use them for?
If I�ve hit the nail on the head to your cryptic enquiry, I keep them for cuttings of my fig tree, or you could grow chilli�s,peppers,aubergines in them maybe

Hello snowdrops,
do the plants you mention have particularly long tap roots?
Cheers, Tony.

Not that I�m aware Tony,but a good plant could fill a largish pot, & as for fig cuttings a longer pot enables more roots to grow from the cuttings

We use the taller pots to go behind the shorter ones in a display...

I pop a much smaller pot upside down inside, (to save compost), fill up the rest with compost/spoil, and plant bedding plants as normal!
