pot size for Truly Tiny and Little Prince
For those of you who grow Truly Tiny and Little Prince, I was just wondering what size pot do you find they grow best in? I have mine in 6 inch round and 8 inch square pots, but most now have pups growing with them.
Also, how/where do you grow them? Most of mine spend the summer on the front steps where they get sun only from around 2pm till sundown. Winter, of course, is spent indoors. Some in cool, dry mode and others in a more warm and moist area. (I am in zone 5 here in northern Pa.) I am always trying to grow these little beauties as best as I can and am on the look out for any info I can get. John |

Re: pot size for Truly Tiny and Little Prince
I don't have an answer, but I hope someone answers soon! I recently got "Little Prince". It's thriving in the pot I purchased it in, and has several pups.
Hey Taylor - are you still out there? I think he had Little Prince... |

Re: pot size for Truly Tiny and Little Prince
My Little Prince is happy in its 3gal container its been in for about a year, they dont get big at all and dont need much space. I havent grown Truly Tiny long enough to see what size it likes, but by looking at the ones I have they do get bigger than Little Prince and would probly enjoy a 5gal to startwith once already rooted and established in a smaller container.
