Hello everyone! Was wondering if this size pot I have for one of my Sarracenia's is alright to use? Im not sure if the pot is to big or if it will work just fine. I will post pictures of the new pot and the plant so it gives a better idea of what everything looks like. The new pots longest part is about 9 1/2 in. and the deepness of the pot is about 9in. The Sarracenia is in a container currently that is 5 1/2 inches deep and the roots are coming out of the bottom so it is time to change pots. The Sarracenia is getting to be a pretty big plant so I am hoping that the pot will work. I am using peat and perlite for my mixture. Any help or suggestions would be great! Thanks for your time!
