An electronic newsletter to which I subscribe urges people to either buy
nursery cans and flower pots immediately or order them fast.  Gardeners
should start hoarding.  Don't throw away pots.  The reason is:

A war with Iraq could lead to very high container prices, according to
container manufacturers. Crude oil is used to make plastic pots, and it has
risen from $16 per barrel 6 months ago to $35 today. A war could raise
prices to $50 and beyond.
