Hey everyone, I’m new to caudex plants and I got a Stephania erecta and realized that my planned pot doesn’t have a drainage hole.
Is there a way to keep caudex plants without drainage holes? I know they shouldn’t be too wet right? How should I water?
Or would it be smarter to put her in a different pot?
After going through other posts I also realized that Stephania erecta are often poached.
Does mine seem poached? I’ve bought other plants from that shop and I thought they were legit but now I’m unsure.

More than likely poached given how fiddly and slow they are to grow.
Just drill a hole in the pot for drainage, S. Erecta definitely do not want to be sitting in water. They need to have good drainage.
Mostly
Although now 5cms and under and being grown in Nurseries in Europe
