I'm seeing "mum pan" pots in 8.25" x 5" and 9" x 6.5" The volume of the 8" mum pan is only three quarts? Hummert has 288 of them for $90.
I can also get a 9 x 6 x 7 pot, 100 of them for $60. That may be a better option.

They will look huge at first, but when you see the finished product, it makes sense. The plant will be larger than a basketball. Probably about 50% larger than. Not that a mum pan won't work. Just looking at it from a perspective of having to hand water a few hundred pots every day. The mum pans were a chore to keep watered with a once a day schedule by hand in a retail environment.
