Pot sizes of plants
The plants we send you in the mail are grown in our tall narrow pots, specifically designed to travel well in the post whilst maintaining a well-formed root system so they will transplant well into your garden.
Different sized pots are used for different type plants. The size of the pot is listed for each pant we sell on our website and in our magazines, so you know what to expect when it arrives.
| Pot Size | Description |

| Midi Pot | 95mm deep, 68mm wide, 0.2L pots for 3–4 month old plants, mostly perennials and herbs, which will grow to the size of a 6 inch pot in 8-10 weeks. See second pot below. |
