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.

Friends, I am ordering some fruit trees that I want to keep in containers for a while, so I can move them around the yard until I decide where I want them to stay. Some may not get in the ground for a while, as I also have some drainage issues I haven't figured out yet.
Can anyone recommend a source for relatively inexpensive planters that would be big enough for young trees? The cheapest half-barrels I've found are still around $80 each, not counting shipping, and that's a little daunting.
Thanks,
Regina
