 o
Perlite and Pots - where to find?

Posted by ourfamilygarden 6 (My Page) on

Hi! I'm looking for some very inexpensive places where I can purchase Perlite (horticultural, small and/or medium grade) for a good price? I haven't found it at our local garden centers, except for the one that includes food and is large grade. We are making hypertufa pots, and I'd like to find a good source for it.

Also, I'd like to know if anyone knows of any stores that are having some really good deals on plant pots (large) and wine barrels (halved, and whole)? We checked with some vineyards on LI, but they are out of them for the season.

Oh, yeah, we're on Long Island :) LOL.

We did get some smaller pots at the local dollar store. They had some for a dollar and change. But, I need to get larger ones.

Thanks!

I'm guessing you already tried the big box retailers (home depot, loews, ...)? Hicks Nursery probably has stuff but they're prohibitively expensive unless they're having a sale.
