Etymology: Repot is a plain formation: the prefix "re-", meaning "again", attached to "pot" used as a verb in its gardening sense, to place a plant in a container. To repot a plant is to pot it once more, usually into a larger container once its roots have filled the old one. The noun "pot" comes from Old English "pott", a deep vessel for cooking or storage. Its ultimate origin is uncertain, and it may be related to Late Latin "potta", though this is not settled. The verb grew out of the noun, so the gardening sense turns a container into an action: to put something into a pot.

Synonyms: transplanted, replanted, relocated, repositioned, moved
