WOODEN TUBS AND BUCKETS
Are you interested in growing plants like hydrangeas, azaleas, fuchsias, Christmas bush, palms, calellias, roses, dahlias, or any of the other hardy lines in timber tubs? if so, take the following advice. Buy the special tubs which are made of well-seasoned wood instead of using oil casks sawn in halves. The oil cask timber is impregnated with oil, a plant killer, and should be kept away from the growth. The oil sooner or later does injury to the tender roots of the plants the tub is holding.
