That gives the root system some space. The plant may look forlorn all by itself in the pot for the first few months, so I'll often pop another pot with a single species of something else into the arrangement. Then, as the Lepechinia fills out, I remove the "decor."<br /><br />Putting a pot of this by a doorway or entry is a nice way to stir that fragrance. <br /><br />Thanks again for your work!Susan Krzywickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11734833252007456199noreply@blogger.com
