Pot size question...

I'm repotting a few today and I've come to Ramblin' Ruby. She's developed a little bit of a neck and has grown in height like a weed! Should I leave her in the same pot - I'm guessing 2 to 2.5 inch and it's the shorter, squatty type pot. (By the way, is that what is called a thumbprint pot?) I have got a regular 3 inch pot I could take her up to and maybe set her a little bit deeper to cover the neck a little. Here she is.
Thanks!

Thumb print pots are about one inch big.
Azeala pots, Pan Pots and such like are more shallow.
I think you could pot her down low in a 3 inch pot and new roots will grow from the nexk.
I would also pinch a few leaves off of her crowns, or take a couple longer leaves off and put them down so she will trail more for you.
Then when she fills the 3 inch pot root wise then I'd go to a pan pot.
I'm sure others may tell you more !

Great! Thank you! Can you tell that she's grown since you sent her to me? She's one of my very favorites!
