Living in North London and looking for a few plastic water tanks about
about
10 or 12 inches or so (25 - 30cm) wide, (length and depth not so
important).

The purpose is; to put in it some *invasive* bamboo plant and then run
them
alongside the fence of a very small garden, so as to act as a screen.

Any idea where water tanks might be found please? Thanks.


In keeping with the spirit of a.h.r., I'll ignore your question and ask
my own. So you're going to make potted plants, above ground? Or are you
going to bury them? Holes will obviously let the roots out, so what are
you going to do for drainage? And I have to ask, with all the choices,
why the invasive stuff?


DIY many thanks. Smitty what a wag you are! a.h.r. ....www.ahr.org.uk
you dont need drainage, bamboo in sealed boxes copes alright without it.
invasive is as invasive presents itself !
