I got this plant in a trade here on the forum back in April 2021. It was small when I received it. So, I potted in in a small pot, then for some reason I also potted that pot in a one gallon pot, then that pot actually got potted in a larger pot. Then I planted all three pots in the soil,then all that got mulched so you could not see it was potted. For some strange reason, I did that with several plants that I put in one of my new beds. Well, after a years worth of growth most of the plants done in this manner were showing a noticeable lack of growth or actual decline. When I starting digging to find out what the problem was I realized the triple potting problem. Not really sure still, why that caused such a problem. A couple of the plants were so weak I thought they needed to be repotted and given special care. I did plant 'Powder Puff Truffle' back in the bed, not in a pot but directly in the ground. Already I can see an improvement, so hopefully it will bloom this season.
