Question on potting up rooted cutting................

12 years ago

I just rec'd a rooted cutting - it's about 15" tall (from top of soil) and the ball of soil wrapped in plastic is about 4" diameter. Should I just put it in a pot only about one inch larger than the soil ball, like I would a houseplant, or can it be put in a slightly larger pot since they grow quickly.

This is my first brugmansia - I'm excited! :)

Thanks!

hi elkay
put it in a bigger pot..and half good soil half compost..and water when it's sunny and hot..fertilize with a high middle number when she gets bigger..3 months and you should have flowers..
cheers and good luck..
