Default Dishpan Culture

A few years ago, I needed to repot my Onc. altissimum from an 8" pot to something larger. Didn't have any really large pots, so Walmart provided a plastic dishpan. I drilled some holes in it and it became my "large pot". The plant looks like it has been shot at and hit (maybe even more than once), but the small, insignificant flowers in mass makes a very nice display.

Way to go, Jerry! I love it when you make it up as you go along, and it works.
