Would the 30-gal grow bags from Peaceful Valley work, do you think? 
They're taller than they are big around, though, which I suppose might 
be good for tap-rooted pawpaws but wouldn't let roots spread out.  They 
have two versions:

One of these days I'm going to seal in my back screened porch and try 
some tropicals, so I'll want a few better-looking and lasting pots too.  
But for now, I'm thinking of 10-15 trees and the cost of planters is 
just too much.
