Hi, just wondering if anyone has an idea of a plant that will be happy
outside in a very small pot?

A friend of mine has bought me some very small novelty pots in the
shapes of wellington boots and bumble bees bees etc and I would really
like to have some pretty plants but I'm worried that the plant will not
do well in such a small pot and wondered if there were any plants that
specifically do well in small pots?

There are three of them and they do all have drainage holes which is
good and measure approximatley 13 cm in height and 10cm width.

If you like herbs, you might try basil. I grow basil in pots all
summer. Those might be a little small but if you really care for them
(harvesting leaves and maybe dividing them) they might do ok.

But where are you?
