can I just leave theses in the 2" pot? Plan on making a gnome garden & will have to move in for the winter or buy new next year.

Personally, I wouldn't. Repot them into different pots a bit larger with cactus/succulent soil. It drains quicker so your plants don't get root rot. Also, the pots they come in are paper thin and these guys grow pretty quick if treated well.

No, i had planned on leaving mine also but the plants get bigger really fast so i had no choice but to switch them.

Yes they can stay in their 2" containers for some time :) Eventually they will out grow the pot and need to be moved into something bigger.

I had mine in the original 2" pot for 2 months before I transplanted them into 4" pots. Some had lots of healthy roots and some had very little roots.

I'm not sure of the exact right answer. I think it would not hurt to put in a big pot. Typically people plant them in the ground so a big pot would not hurt. I don't have a spot in my yard ready yet. Keep in mind I live in southeast Texas. They grow well here & rarely the temp is freezing.

I would think you would need to re-pot them. They come in small plastic containers like you might see at a garden store when buying herbs or small plants. It would be okay to give but the pots need dressed up a bit for a bridal shower.

I would have to say they are too big for a small 6 inch diameter pot. The wine bottle would dwarf the flowers. I suppose you could use them in a small pot when you are away on vacation just use a smaller bottle. It is very good in a 12 inch or larger pot. I also use it in my flower garden in areas that I find hard to water regularly.

do not see why not, the pot is big enough....I do not use one for this pot...

You could- but it is very small. They are about 2" wide pots. They do hang nicely in a wall but they could free hang nicely as well.

yes you can but please note that they are very small not what I thought they would be. make sure this is the size you want. I never even used mine because I haven't had anything real small to make yet. but one day I will I am sure.

Last year I used these for potatoes and the 10 Gal size were plenty big. Then, this spring my 2 trees (6ft.tall) were delivered too early and I am using my 10 Gals Dirt Pots to hold these over until I can plant them outside.They are plenty big however when you water them I recommend making sure to drench the soil. I made the mistake of not soaking the soil and the water ran off the top of the soil and down the fabric on the inside.

not with an inch head space. Also, these pots don't have handles on the sides, so moving them when they are full or hot is difficult.

Hello fmcool, no need for another pot. I am currently growing a house plant directly inside this pot. It is a great pot for a medium sized plant.

Ulla, I have grown these in pots so I can bring them inside in the winter. I wouldn't keep them out when the temperatures are consistently below 45.

You could...but I don't know how long they would hold up. Maybe succulents that didnt' require much water. I would look elsewhere for planters though.

I'd recommend using them in larger pots, as the size of the bottles used may cause smaller pots to tip over (in addition to possibly not leaving enough room for the plant to grow).

The pot is flimsy. You would need to replace it. Wintergreen is designed to be a ground cover plant and would do best if you planted directly in the ground.

Yes you could, we just tossed them in amongst our really boring green plants, sadly our landscaping company think they are weeds, even though we tell them not to! Warmth and moisture seems to be all they need!

unless you have an unusually large pot, they are somewhat adjustable, or a cast iron Dutch oven, which may be a bit heavy. if you have a large number you may want 2 sets and stack them as I did

I would imagine you could, as they are organic. I would just adjust the size of them according to your container. I used them in my container garden last year and they worked well, but I used very large pots. Since they're spikes they can easily be broken in half.
