For the last couple of years I've been using various containers to sit
my ever
growing collection of Sarracenia's in, but nothing has proved to be
particularly
successful in the long term. I'm wondering what other people use for
theirs.
I'm now looking for something like stainless steel/rust resistant
trays about
12-18 inches wide, 24-36 inches long and about 2-3 ins deep, but
unfortunately I
can't find anything like that off the shelf, and I'd rather not have to pay
to get
them made specially. Does anyone have any recommendations/suggestions on
what I
could use that's cheap and long lasting (I was using clear plastic
containers, which
were perfect, except they didn't stand up to UV rays). Any help would be
much
appreciated.

Mike: One of the options you could try would be the plastic trays used to
hold liquid chlorine bottles for shocking swimming pools. In Fla. these
cost about 2-3$ a piece and can be found at any pool supply store. (In
other parts of the country they may be hard to find.) These do not break
down like the typical Wal-Mart trays.
