I know it's silly but my wife keeps buying plastic pots for outside and
they do not drain. I have to drill holes in them to keep plants from
drowning
While drainage holes are generally needed there are plants where this really
isn't a concern. For example, I have on a number of occasions inadvertently
attempted to drown impatiens in pots without drainage holes. Never
succeeded.
