Q/A #142 - Sarracenia Roots Growing Out of the Pot

QUESTION:
I ordered the plant and the plant arrived on June 23. the plant is in a 1 inch watertray. The plants roots are starting to stick out of the bottom of the pot. Do I need to repot the plant, and if so when? Also if I do need to repot it how big should the pot be?

RESPONSE BY JEFF DALLAS:
This is no big deal. We have many mother plants that have been in the same pot for years, and their roots are coming out of the bottom. It just means that it's time to increase your pot size. As long as the pots are in water trays, it's of no consequence.
