Houseplant Size Guide
At Houseplant.co.uk, we want to ensure that you choose the perfect plant for your space. Here's how we measure our plants:
Plant Height:
Measured from the base of the nursery pot to the top of the plant, including the full length of the stem and foliage.
Pot Size:
Refers to the total width across the top of the pot.
Choosing the Right Size
To find the perfect fit, compare the diameter of your plant's grow pot to the opening diameter of your chosen decorative pot. Ensure the decorative pot is at least 1-3cm larger in diameter than the grow pot for easy insertion and removal.
Important Notes
- Plant sizes are approximate and include the depth of the plant pot and roots, not just the height from the top of the soil.
- If a specific plant size is not available, we may provide a larger plant at no additional cost to you.

Excellent delivery and once my plants arrived they were perfect. Well packed and healthy, which is remarkable for something that’s travelled through the post. Wish they had a more exciting range of pots though.

Areca Palm ordered with other itemsStunning, healthy plants
The plants arrived in stunning condition, care has been taken with the packing, unfortunately the delivery service not so much, two (2) of the posts were smashed, luckily only plastic pottings so easily replaced, just an extra job. Plants themselves were very healthy and look stunning, looking forward to the change they will bring to the rooms they will be placed in Order was processed quickly as was delivery, overall experience was great

Really good website. The plants were all packed so carefully and made the journey fine. I have exchanged a few emails; everyone is really helpful, friendly and caring. I didn’t realise how important houseplants are, so I didn’t know where to start. I am a complete novice, so I am very pleased that I found houseplant.co.uk. Thank you so much for all your help. You are amazing 😊

Areca Palm ordered with other itemsGreat quality products. Shipping isn’t as communicative or speedy as the best.
Details on the site were clear and accurate. Store easy to navigate and find what I wanted. Liked the different sizes of the same species was easily toggled. The ordering process was clear. The despatch date was a little loose. Ordered on Thursday waited until Tuesday until it was sent. Not the end of the world (they say nothing is despatched on Fridays for a good reason) Couriers are ‘ok’ - 2 hour window of delivery on day of delivery. Plant was packaged really well, roots, stems and leaves were immaculate as was the pot - fully bubbled wrapped. Item was exactly as described now it’s up to me to keep it alive! Will use this site again. Thanks!
