They're 7" square and 9" deep. They're designed for use with hydroponics and they're full of large holes all around the bottom, so I lined each one with a sheet of landscape fabric and covered the vertical holes on the sides with white duct tape to keep my peat and sand mix from washing out.
I bought them on Amazon a few years ago, but ever since then they've only been available in a case of 50 for nearly $100.

I just did a quick search and found some other similar ones.

That one lists the exact same measurements as mine and looks like it has fewer holes, but one of the reviews says the measurements aren't very accurate. I would ignore the other bad reviews it got because they're all from morons who thought they were gonna get an entire *case* of pots for only eight dollars?!?
Oh wait, one of the other reviews says the price has been changed, so I guess it was higher before and they got ripped off.
There's also this one that comes in a pack of five, but it looks shorter and I don't see where any depth measurement is listed.

I remember I had to do quite a bit of searching before I finally found what I've been using. I've been really happy with the results I've had from using deeper pots. The only other drawback I've found is that after a few years, the plastic around the top edges of the pots is getting brittle from sun exposure and starting to crack when handled, but that would probably happen with *any* pot. I'm surprised someone out there doesn't make tall, deep, sturdy white pots designed specifically for flytraps.
