    Sara, Some plants prefer to be pot bound. In the back of my mind I'm thinking jade is one, but can't remember for sure. Someone else with a better memory - please comment.

    Until you get a garden book just Google the botanical names I have given you. Wikipedia is one source of OK info. (University, County Extension, or Other Official sites are best!) Wiki. will give you basic care and feeding, preferred light and heat and such. You sound young so you are probably more computer literate than I - use it! barb

    Yeah I think that's a great idea. I'm going to start now I don't know why I didn't think of that earlier. Thank you!

    They do like being pot bound but I'm re-potting mine in to a clay pot.
