I just want everyone to know that I will pull together a list of
the plants grown in whisky barrels.  If you remember, I am doing
this to provide information at my web site for the disabled
gardener.  After reading some of the suggestions, I am wondering
if their are "cheaper" containers that could be adapted so a
disabled person could create a series of containers for herbs,
perennials, etc. without having to ever "dig up the yard"?

When I get the page created, I publish the url so you can see
what it looks like.  Is there any chance that someone here would
have some pictures of plants in whisky type barrels that could be
used?  I really appreciate any help you can give me.  I am
disabled myself--this is what motivated me to create a special
website for disabled gardeners.

If you sent something in the last 24 hours, there is a good
chance it didn't get through because our mother board shorted
out.  Had to pay for my 2nd computer repair job in 7 years--my
son and brother couldn't come up with an answer and it was as
simple as the motherboard had been shoved against the case
somehow while they were testing memory from my brother's
computer.

Please resend any messages to me direct:  dlpederson@voyager.net
and let me know if you mind being given "credit" on the website.
