Lo

Might be a silly question but is one drainage hole in a pot enough or do I need multiple? Also I have well draining soil. Thanks!

    Yes one is enough and it is how well the soil can drain is what is important not number of holes.

    As long as there's a way for water to drain, you're fine!

    Yes totally - also a good idea for future I like to have mine in a [plastic] planter with good drainage, then place the planter inside the pretty pot (sometimes pretty ones don’t have the drainage holes required). It allows me to pull the planter out and bottom water! Not necessary here but just a tip!
