How long can my Barbapapa last?
Your Barbapapa can last up to 6 weeks (Grass Garden) or 2-4 months (Pot BellyGarden), if you care for it. For the Barbapapa Grass Garden, you may trim the grass and it will continue to grow. Do not cut the grass more than half down or you risk killing it. For the Barbapapa Pot Belly Garden, after several months, it is recommended that you transplant your Pot Belly Garden to the ground or a larger pot. Do this by digging a hole the size of the boot planter in the ground or in the potting soil of a pot. Carefully remove the plant from the boot planter. You might need to use a butter knife to help loosen the soil from the edges of the planter. You will see the root ball that has formed in the boot. Place it into the hole. You can reuse your Barbapapa as a unique container for paperclips, coins or other small items.
