Wow! You guys are all not only great kind helpers but amazing plant growers with so much knowledge, experience, and insights. I am a (never?) retired scientist and now humbled and inspired by you to be a new nature lover. But I am just a starter of plant growing and have been overwhelmed by all your wonderful reply, message, info. Let me say: all respects, all thanks to you all, but bear with me for my total ignorance, confusion, and inexperience on plant growing.

Planto - the Hahnii came (from a nursery in Ohio) in a 4" pot. One week after I re-pot to 6" (square). I'll be careful not over-watering it. When re-potting, I fill some mix (miracle gro) in the bottom of the new pot, water rinse, then I just remove the old small plastic pot from the plant and put the whole plant (include the old soil, mix) in the new pot, and fill up with mix, water again. Flaw?

Purple - Thanks for replying again. Sorry the Laurentii picture does not show the pot top well. It's first time I see the "pup" in your picture. It's amazing! When re-potting, if I see them in there, what do I do? Still put in the new pot? ...

Tarev - How do you "add more perlite" in the existing pot? just spread some of the white perlite particles on top of the existing mix?

Again, many thanks.
If a plant looks good, smells good, don't eat it, grow it!
