So this post is more about the Planta App than plants and I’m not sure anyone will have an answer but I figure it can’t hurt to ask. I have several pots with multiple plants in them. Two are succulent pots and three are decorative pots with various flowers and shrubs in them. Especially regarding the succulent pots, depending on the weather they maybe inside or outside. I am wondering if there is a way to designate multiple plants in a single pot and then place that pot in a site? For example, I have 4 succulents in a single pot. When they are inside they are in my living room. When I harden them to go outside they would be on my front porch and then eventually moved to the flowerbed. All of these sites have different light and moisture available but would be delivered equally to all the plants in that pot. The problem is, I can’t just say I moved the pot (and all the plants in it). I have to set up a site called succulent pot (living room) and another succulent pot (porch) and finally succulent pot (flowerbed). Then each plant needs to be manually moved individually and the pot information has to be updated for each of those locations. Is there anyway to group a set of plants to reflect them in a communal pot and then move that pot to specific sites as needed? If there isn’t a way to do this, where can we request this as a feature for future development?

    Post this in Feedback on Planta community. It’s a good idea! They’re very receptive to suggestions. 🙂

    Such a great idea for Planta to add! My best friend has multiple plants in the same pot(s) as well & it always looks gorgeous! They like to propagate multiple plants in the same water too. I think this addition would definitely encourage more experts (such as my bestie) to join the app!

    It’s generally not advised to do this because they can kill eachother root systems as they grow. If you used some kind of solid divider in the pot so their roots couldn’t interact this would resolve the issue As far as Planta details go, the watering needs should stay the same even if they are located differently as long as they aren’t exposed to rain or severe weather (30C sun for example). A moisture meter is the most accurate way to identify if they need watering over using this app as it often hands out poor reminders for succulent care. You can have multiple plants grouped together but you would need to make one profile, a picture of all of them together, and then a custom name to reflect that group. That way you don’t have to make individual profiles. You may be able to go into the settings of your plant pot and under ‘site location’ change it but I have never done this myself so I’m unsure if it is an option
