Well, it’s official… I’m not a perfect plant mom. And while I’m not surprised by that at all, I am disappointed that it didn’t take one or two times to learn this silly lesson. What is the lesson, you might ask?
Don’t put plants in pots with no drainage!
No, seriously… don’t do it. I have seen suggestions on just keeping the plants in their original plastic containers from the nursery and placing them inside a decorative pot, but this is the THIRD time I have almost killed one of my plants from doing this.
So from now on, we will skip the cute decorative planters for living plants and go straight for pots with proper drainage – like these gorgeous white patina ones from Bloomist.
