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.

I ordered a weeping fig and a spider plant. They arrived promptly and safely. I am delighted with my purchase. Highly recommend.
Truly amazing my plants arrived quickly and in perfect condition. The plants, four of them, had all been careful packed to protect their leaves and branches.
We are delighted with the ficus, delivered in good condition and it’s a nice shape.
All Good! Great little plants to add to a growing collection, look healthy, arrived as promised! What’s not to love ❤️
This is the 2nd time I have sent gifts using this service. Everyone was delighted with the quality of the plants and pot. The delivery was just as required with a time slot.
Pleasant surprise. It is a first company which has thought about everything. Even securing a compost in a pot, wrapping in paper. Absolutely first class service.
Professional and efficient service, plants arrive promptly, well packaged and in pristine order, very healthy. Excellent value for money. Houseplant UK is the best online company I have found in this category.

Great speedy ordering & delivery. However, the pot I ordered with the plant was delivered completely broken, I guess that can happen, no problem - I dropped a quick email back with a photo asking for a replacement, 2 chasers - no response in 27 days so far. But you keep sending me great offers! I won't be buying anything else, however great an offer until you respond to my request for a replacement. Thanks.

Absolutely brilliant experience using this website!! One of the plants I ordered didn't pass quality check, so they immediately emailed me and offered to replace it or refund it, or asked if I'd like to wait for another one. I asked for a replacement and asked them to choose, I got the most gorgeous plant instead!! So happy with the quality and service from this place, will definitely order again!

I have yet to receive my plants because you use a courier that doesn't do the job he's paid to do. It's winter and my plants have been in a freezing cold van for two days & nights and I'm told they can't be delivered for another two days & nights. By the time my plants arrive they will be in a very poor state.

I have only ever been buying my plants from this site. They arrive so quickly and in such good health. I would say how many plants I have bought from here, but there are just too many. Delivery was fast and they were secure in packaging. I have only had a small issue once with my Hawaiian palm having two yellow leaves when it arrived but other than that it was healthy and I have never had that issue before so I'm sure its a one off. Will always be using these. I am looking often to see if they update their stock for new plants.

Parlour Palm ordered with other itemsGreat experience from start to finish
Website is clear, with enough information to allow me to make a choice - but not overwhelming for a novice like me. Delivery was quick - slightly delayed as they hold back to avoid plants being stuck mid delivery over the weekend, which is sensible. Plants arrived in good condition, with a good courier company - not one of the cheap ones that looses your parcel. Very good quality plants, I just need to look after them now. Very happy customer, and I'll be ordering again.
