In this case, Yes, I do! We have a large, fairly wild garden but need
something to provide some privacy from the garden uphill of ours. The
embankment between levels is ours, fortunately.

Chris - Yes, it is just coming into flower. This one is attractive because
it is free. If this looks like working I have room for other colours as
well!
Thanks.


With care you should be able to cut the pot away from the roots that
have grown out.

I've sometimes had to cut tight/trapped pots off plants that I
forgot about or kept far too long before deciding where to plant them.
A pair of sharp kitchen scissors will cut pot-plastic, and the underside
can be cut into small enough sections from the holes, to free the
escaped roots.
