Hi

I have an umbrella plant that I need to re-pot.

Do I need to place it in a plastic pot with drainage holes before I

put
it inside a decorative pot, or can I pot it straight into a

decorative
pot?


It is best to pot it into a plastic pot with drainage holes. If you
potted it directly into a decorative pot, you would have to be
*exceedingly* careful with watering, otherwise you will make a potted

bog.

Thank you Franz. That was my first instinct
