Q.How Do I Keep A Houseplant From Outgrowing Its Container

Zone 93643 | Anonymous added on April 30, 2024 | Answered

I’ve had to repot my spider plant three times so far because it continues to outgrow its container. I don’t want it to get any larger. How do I keep a house plant from getting too large? Can I cut the root ball? Thank you

You can do some root pruning to keep the plant longer in the same pot.
