Hey guys i got this mixed plant arrangement as a gift, ive never gotten one before so i have no idea on what to do with it?? Do i keep it like this or separate them? I feel like it looks so good all together but i know they all have their own needs.

I got one of these and separated it because the thing it came in had no drainage holes. They’ve all survived over a year since I got it. You can probably keep together if you want but the roots might become intertwined if you ever want to separate it maybe difficult.

Yes James, I was thinking the same thing with the roots too. I would separate them in their own planter, so they'll have their own root space
