Hi Navywife and welcome from the Norwegian Artic.
I'm not sure about flowers but with my herbs and veggies, i just take the next size pot, fill with some stones or gravel then add dirt or what ever your choice of planting material is. Then take the plant pot turn upside down, with my fingers supporting the stem of the plant, and squeeze the pot until the plant and dirt comes out. then i do a little loosening of the dirt, not enough to injure the roots, and stick that into the new pot. Then fill with dirt around the vacant areas water real good and set in the sun.
2 things i want to add saying, i always water the plant real good first before transplanting to a new pot. and also i never fertalize the day i transplant, i wait until it dries out or needs watering again then fertilize. This site is filled with people who are way better at this than i am, so maybe they can help you better.
Good luck with your plants!
