tundra daisy
n.— «Like many residents of the North, I’ve found that the easiest and cheapest of all materials to recycle are 55-gallon drums, five-gallon (Blazo) gas cans and Blazo shipping crates. These versatile objects have been put to so many uses, in fact, that folks in these parts refer to the barrels as “tundra daisies” and to the boxes as “Alaskan lumber.”» —“Oil Drum Handicraft” by Gary L.
