#1 Ease the plant out of the original pot, trim roots if necessary, and set aside.
#2 Add enough soil to the bottom of a larger pot so that when you place the smaller pot inside, it will be level with the top of the larger pot.
#3 Fill the empty space between the two pots with potting mixture and tamp down the soil around the inner pot. Dampen if necessary.
#4 Remove the inner pot and place the plant into the hole left by the inner pot.
#5 The plant fits snugly into the larger pot. No stickers, thorns, punctures, scratches, or scrapes from re-potting!
