Default Potting soil vs garden soil

Helpful replies from you and Songbird. I wouldn't have thought
of filling the bottom with space-holding materials, e.g.


some folks just put pots full of soil/mix into larger
containers and use wood chips/mulch/whatever to fill in
around them and then over them too so that it all looks
uniform. makes changing plants in and out very quick.
just scrape aside mulch, lift out pot, put new pot in
with replacement plants, put mulch back. done.
