Subject: [NAFEX] Nursery Cans & Flower Pots

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.
