went to buy one big pot for the curry leaf plant, came back with four plants and no pot

the roadside nursery near our place has got very good at selling to me. the curry leaf has outgrown its pot, so this evening i went out specifically for a bigger terracotta one. came back with a hibiscus, two tulsi and a jasmine. no pot. son looked at the terrace and asked if we're opening a shop. fair. if anyone knows a place around miyapur or chandanagar that stocks the big terracotta pots, the 18 inch kind, tell me. ideally somewhere that doesn't also sell plants.

    The potters' stalls along the Mumbai highway side used to have the large sizes stacked outside, though I haven't been in about a year. Check the drainage hole before you buy. Half the big ones I've bought had a hole too small for that size and needed widening.

    Order it online and have it delivered. You clearly can't be trusted at the nursery.
