Clarification: There are no new regulations on nursery containers.
Truth-in-labeling laws have been around for decades. What's new is that someone
finally noticed, and made a stink about, the fact that most 'ten
inch' hanging baskets didn't measure 10" in any direction, most 'gallon'
pots didn't hold a gallon, and so on. Ergo, the green industries are now being
held to the same standards all other businesses have had to observe all
along.
I'm waiting for somebody to get busted for ignoring or misinterpreting the
regs. The incentive is there for the regulators.
