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.

Spiky, fun and perfect for those who love cactis, these White Barrel Cactis - also known as Echinocactus Grusonii Albispinus - are wonderfully easy to care for and great for beginners due to their origins in the warm, dry valleys of Mexico. They are best identified through their distinct geometric globe-like appearance and lengthy white spikes, and they are ideal for adding a tropical touch to your spaces at home, in the office & beyond due to their natural adaptability. Great for gifting too, there's plenty to admire with this prized variety! 

Please note height and stem count can differ to that photographed depending on the variety selected and natural factors from plant-to-plant. Decorative pots are sold separately.

Houseplant & Indoor Plant Care

White Barrel Cactus Care Guide

Caring for your White Barrel Cactus is a breeze. Simply place yours in a warm, well aerated spot that gets ample sunlight and water once the soil has fully dried. Always be on the side of underwatering if uncertain, and avoid repotting on arrival to minimise root stress.

Your plant will be ready for repotting once roots poke out of its nursery pot drainage holes. When this is the case, use a well draining succulent mix for a straightforward repot and transfer. Keep away from pets and children.
