in reply to how to do anything • • •The image depicts a step-by-step illustration of transplanting a plant. In the first part, a potted plant with green leaves and pink flowers is shown, with its roots exposed in the soil. The pot is transparent, allowing a clear view of the roots. The second part of the image shows the plant being removed from the pot and placed into a hole in the ground, indicated by a white arrow pointing downwards. The soil around the hole is brown, and the background is a simple gradient of light blue, suggesting an outdoor setting. The illustration is educational, focusing on the process of transplanting a plant from a pot to the ground.
