Houseplant Size Guide

Plant height measurement: How we measure the height of our houseplants from pot to top

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.

Dieffenbachia's are often given a hard time, when actually their care requirements are pretty simple. Follow a few simple guidelines and you'll be rewarded with one of the best houseplants a green-fingered fellow could ask for. Water a little at a time and more regularly - they don't appreciate a sporadic drenching. They also suit low,  dappled lighting which most of our homes offer plentifully as the sun moves around our homes. Rotate your Dumb can often to encourage straight growth.

Houseplant & Indoor Plant Care

Dumb Cane | Camilla Care Guide

A well-draining potting mix is the Dumb cane's number one priority as they like a consistently moist, but not soggy soil. Improper lighting will show on the leaves if it's not happy - so it's best to position in in a filtered light position - such as sunlight that shines through a sheer curtain.

    I purchased 4 houseplants from this company. On the plus side the plants arrived quickly but one in particular showed signs of damage/disease. I complained and the customer service team offered me a voucher but it was for less than the value of the plant. Despite following care instructions and cutting off the dead leaves the plant eventually died. Another plant purchased from them is also slowly dying. I wouldn’t purchase any plants from this company again as their customer service isn’t up to scratch and the quality of the plants / survival rates when compared to other delivery options isn’t as good

    Beautiful, healthy, robust plants,similar prices as supermarkets, but so much better value for money. Prompt service, well protected with the packaging. I cannot recommend them high enough.
