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.

The Orbifolia Calathea is one of the most highly sought-after Calatheas due to the impactful, round leaves that seemingly spiral out of the centre like a rosette. Soft green and deep green stripes cover each oversized leaf, giving this delightful plant visual impact even when choosing a smaller sized specimen.

Houseplant & Indoor Plant Care

Prayer Plant | Orbifolia Care Guide

Calatheas love bright, indirect sunlight in order to thrive. Plentiful Humidity and a moist, consistent soil will ensure your Calathea is happy. A Pebble Tray underneath your plant, with a little sitting water will create the perfect humidity for your beautiful plant, whilst ensuring the plant pot sits on top of the pebbles rather than submerged into the water.

    Excellent!

    I have bought many plants online before from other suppliers this is the best packaging! Each item was carefully wrapped with 3-4 layers of material. Plants arrived in excellent condition. It was like opening Christmas presents! I was excited about the Rescue Me! Orchid box! as I love rescuing orchids and can't wait to see if they will flower for me!

    Terrible company, totally deceived with the size of the plants they were sending. Most were close to half the size that I had paid for. Emailed for support and a week later no reply. I have had 4 separate promotional emails since then and one asking for a review, so here you are. Really bad value, can get stuff much healthier and larger for the same money in the supermarket or at a market. Attached a photo if the plant they sent (small one) next to one I already had that was the size that they were supposed to send.
