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.

Houseplant & Indoor Plant Care

Wandering Dude | Purple Jewel Care Guide

Tradescantias benefit from a regular pruning to encourage a full and bodied plant. Enjoys partial sun but copes well in lower light spots. Prefers a more consistent temperature, therefore it is best to avoid positioning in a draughty hallway. Water well and thoroughly during the active growing season, reducing water in the winter when the plants growth slows down.

    Delivered quickly but the plant got damaged in transit, big box with multiple items. Perhaps better to send plants separately.
