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.

Collapsible content

What is the Aloe Vera Known For?

Aloe Vera is best known for its gel-filled leaves that have been used for centuries for their soothing, healing, and hydrating properties. It's a staple in skin care and alternative medicine due to its potent anti-inflammatory and regenerative qualities.

What Is the History of the Aloe Vera?

Historically, Aloe Vera has been used as a medicinal plant since ancient times, with evidence of its use by the Sumerians and Egyptians, who called it the "plant of immortality." It has a long-standing tradition in herbal remedies and has been depicted in ancient carvings and writings.

Where Does the Aloe Vera Originate?

Aloe Vera is believed to originate from the Arabian Peninsula, but due to its ease of cultivation and popularity, it now grows in sunny climates worldwide, from Africa to the Mediterranean, and in many homes in the UK as a houseplant.

How Do You Care for a Aloe Vera?

Proper care for an Aloe Vera plant includes positioning it in a place with bright, indirect sunlight and watering it sparingly – only when the soil is completely dry. It's a drought-tolerant plant that prefers warmer temperatures and can suffer from overwatering.

Are Aloe Vera Toxic to Pets?

Aloe Vera is not safe for pets if ingested. The gel is commonly used for topical applications, but the plant's leaves contain aloin, which can be toxic to cats and dogs if consumed.
