Took another visit to Sunfish's Nursery today and brought home a Dwarf Red.
I'm really excited about this one because this was the plant I wanted to start with originally. The first time I spoke with Tony, he told me that it was spoken for. :( . But since then I guess it never got picked up so I decided to give it a new home! :D
I thought it was smaller and so I only had plan to put it in a 3 gallon until Spring comes and I would transplant it to a bigger pot.

As you can see it would not have taken long for it reach the edges. So I decided to get it in a bigger pot.

Ran to home depot to pick up this 16" pot. I saw a 7 gallon pot, but it was only bigger height wise and not so much as width.

I sure hope it can be happy in this pot until Spring comes along. Any suggestions on watering schedule for this growing Dwarf Red?
