How to put plants in decorative pots?
Insert a nursery pot: Use a pot with drainage holes that fits inside the decorative pot. Fill the inner pot: Add potting mix and your plant(s). Water slowly: Let excess water run into the bottom layer. All you have to do is take your plant, still in its nursery pot (that’s the plastic one it arrives in), and place it in a decorative pot, as shown in the gif below. No new soil needed. No messy hands. There are several reasons why we suggest doing this, rather than repotting directly into the decorative pot.
