I have a card that has three containers. The first two have text and the last one is supposed to hold a TextFormField alongside some text. So i have a row to hold the two along one another. Only thing is when i add the TextFormField widget it does not appear and the console throws shows an error

The code looks like
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
class Home extends StatefulWidget {
@override
_HomeState createState() => _HomeState();
}
class _HomeState extends State<Home> {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Container(

child: Column(
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,

height: 100.0,
color: Colors.purple,
),
Container(
height: 200.0,
color: Colors.pink,
child: Column(
children: <Widget>[
new RichText(
textAlign: TextAlign.center,
text: TextSpan(
text: 'Some Text',
style: TextStyle(

),
Row(
children: <Widget>[
Text('adfa'),
Text('data'),
Form(
child: TextFormField(),
),
],

],
),
),
],
),
),
));
}
}
TextFormField
causes the issue. It needs constraints for width.
E.g. wrap it into Expanded widget or Container with width.
