So I have poked around on youtube and most methods of saving large pots seem to involve drilling holes on each side of the crack and lacing it up with wire like a shoe. One video used galvanuzed wire tightened around it like a barrel stave. The latter seems more reasonable to me given it does not further weaken the pot. Any other ideas?
Always looking for interesting plants for pollinators and food! Bonus points for highly, and pleasantly scented plants.
