OK Paul have you been holding out on us??  It just came into focus for me a few weeks ago, that I have on my kitchen window sill several Wheaton sample bottles that I use to root cutting of mostly house plants.  Of course mine are so old they have cork stoppers, the bottles of today I'm sure have a silicone/rubber closure.
So are you an heir to the sample bottle fortune???

Peace

Sorry Paul, I'm a little weird and I need to quit trying to be funny.  These sample bottles were used back in the 1980's to collect water samples from monitor traps and wells near energy (petroleum) companies.  Environmental stuff.

The bottles are kinda cute and small about 2 fl oz or so with a smaller neck, perfect for holding cuttings.

Peace
