Perma-nest is sold by various garden catalogs, including Park Seeds. This place sells in multiples of six. http://growerssolution.com/PROD/perma-nest-plant-trays/PermaNest

I've had these same trays for about 25 years. Back then, they were expensive at $6 each set (they came with the dome) and I bought 6 sets. Well, this year I had one tray leak after all these years, but...I fixed it with the hot glue gun. I swear by, not at, these trays!
Even if they are half the quality they used to be, I will still by them if I ever need to.
