Misawa77 said:I pot for more than one reason.

1. I pot to sell.
2. I pot to nurse back to health.
3. I pot to delay planting in ground because of bed prep issues (delaying tactic-I rather plant straight to the garden and avoid #3)

I use the same pots as "Stoney Creek Iris" (we like to match-yes I buy from her "vendor" )


I pot for the same reasons at Greg except to sell. ( I just don't sell mine) I had to pot all my recent orders because my husband just decided to bring a bulldozer home from work and do some work to our creek and in my iris field so I had to dig some up and put them in pots also.
I will say for watering purposes it's much easier but the knowing I am going to have to plant everything all over again is a bummer. I much prefer the one and done method! Smiling
