Nursery Supplies Classic Blow-Molded Pot | 45gal Trade - Round - Black - 45.28gal Capacity - 30in D X 20 1/8in H (Case of 5)

Heavy-Weight, Rigid Blow-Molded Pot for Large Specimen Trees, 45.28gal Capacity

A mature specimen tree or large shrub outgrows anything the standard trade-size pot line can support, both in root volume and in the sidewall rigidity needed to hold that much wet media without deforming. Nursery Supplies' Classic Blow-Molded Pot at the 45 gallon trade size is built with the heavier weight and rigidity that scale calls for, manufactured in the USA.

This 45gal Trade pot (45.28gal capacity, 30in D x 20-1/8in H) is sized for mature specimen trees and large shrubs, shipping in a case of 5.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does this pot need to be heavier than standard trade pots?

At 45.28gal capacity, the weight of wet media and root mass is significantly more than a standard trade pot ever holds, so the sidewalls need more rigidity to avoid deforming under that load. A thinner-walled pot at this scale would be more likely to bulge or split under that load.

What is this pot sized for?

It's sized for mature specimen trees and large shrubs, measuring 30in D x 20-1/8in H with a 45.28gal capacity, well beyond standard trade-size nursery stock. It is not intended for standard trade-size annuals or perennials.

Is this pot made domestically?

Yes, it's manufactured in the USA rather than imported, which is part of what Nursery Supplies highlights for this larger-format container. Domestic manufacturing also tends to mean more consistent lead times for large orders.

How many come in a case?

This pot ships in a case of 5, reflecting its large size compared to the higher case counts typical of smaller trade pots. Plan pallet space accordingly when ordering in volume.

Can I use this pot for anything besides trees and shrubs?

Its scale is built specifically for large woody specimen stock; smaller crops are better suited to Nursery Supplies' standard trade-size or Olympian pot lines rather than this 45 gallon format. Using it for smaller crops would waste both media and bench space.
