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.

Zygopetalum orchids are rewarding plants, known for their ease of culture, and deep-coloured, fragrant blooms. Their flowers are long-lasting, making them great plants to add some colour to your home, but this also puts them in high demand as cut flowers. There are only fourteen species in the Zygopetalum genus, and hybrid species are highly sought after by orchid enthusiasts. You will receive a surprise blue variety from our mixed grower trays.

Such an interesting and wide Orchid experience. I ordered one for a friend, and between me and the system my friends address was replaced by mine. As this was a gift post op I did not want to intrude by taking it along to her, after it arrived with me, so I sent initially an email. This was followed up by a message on the contact form. All was not lost and the reply said they had changed the delivery address. Lo and behold it arrived at the right place. Thank you Houseplant.
