Hi Susan, yes, you need a hole much larger than the drainhole you normally find in the bottom of the pot! The crown of the plant will grow to several inches in diameter in a year or two, and the hole needs to be big enough to accommodate that. Also, you need a little extra room so water can get in :-)

Do you need a larger than usual opening in the bottom of the pot for the plant to grow through?

Great idea - thank you!
