# I was just gifted a 5" papaya plant and I need to repot it but I can…

_Posted by MummaDeb on 2024-08-15_

I was just gifted a 5" papaya plant and I need to repot it but I can find any info on soil etc. One site said to put it in a huge pot immediately and another said to start with a small one and gradually repot. Does anyone know what this plant needs?
