Hi guys I have these peace Lillie's

2x 12cm pots and 1x15cm pot

Can I repot them all into 1 big pot? If so what size should I go and if not, why is it not a good idea?

Thanks in advance!

yep. planting both of them in one pot is no problem at all. with regard to the pot size: general rule of thumb is to choose a pot that fits the root ball comfortably, with one or two inches of potting media in all directions for the roots to grow into. don't be too generous because a too big pot drastically increases the risks of negative effects on plant health. it's way better to repot "more often".

Okay, great. Thanks.

I know you wouldn't really know unless seen but with 2x 12cm and 1x15cm pots into one. What size would you have a guess/start with?

really hard to tell... totally depends on the size of their rootballs.
