More on depth of soil. First I haven't grown perennials in a container so I can't comment on depth of soil. For most annuals that I use are in 1 qt pots about 4" depth even breaking up the root ball in planting the roots stay close so 3" more of soil does fine. Total 7-8" from top rim which is about where you are---not to worry.
