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.

Wandering Dude Nanouk ordered with other itemsGood plants. Sadly some damaged during delivery and sale could be better value for cash.
Plants arrived in good time and most in good condition. Sadly the bunny ears cactus I bought seemed to be damaged during delivery which is a shame and some of the more expensive plants were slightly smaller that expected. Other than that the other plants were in good health and the care instructions are helpful, I think the plants are a bit pricy for what they are given I mostly ordered on the sale section.

Wandering Dude Nanouk ordered with other itemsRubber plant died....but nanouk flourishes!
Thought I'd write an updated review on how my plants are doing! To get the bad news out of the way, the harsh colds here made it difficult for the rubber plants soil to dry so it sadly died. However, the nanouk I bought is doing better than I ever expected! It has grown a lot in such a short period, and even put a few buds out which are now starting to open. The cushion succulent is also doing well, but growing at an expected slow rate. They sell very high quality plants but I'd make sure you can definitely take care of the plant you're getting before buying, as I'm still mourning the loss of my rubber plant.
