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

Donkey's Tail Burrito Care Guide

Succulents thrive on little healthy neglect so allow to dry out between watering, and avoid getting the leaves wet when watering to prevent rot. Ensure they have excellent drainage. They enjoy bright, indirect light but can handle partial shade.

Learn More About Donkey's Tail Burrito

Collapsible content

What is the Donkey's Tail Burrito Known For?

The Donkey's Tail Burrito, or Hylotelephium Sieboldii, is celebrated for its distinctive trailing stems and plump, round foliage. The leaves, resembling a string of green pearls or burritos, cascade beautifully, making it a favourite for hanging baskets and high shelves.

What Is the History of the Donkey's Tail Burrito?

This succulent has its roots in the traditional Japanese horticulture where it was first cultivated for its ornamental beauty. It was prized in stone gardens and as a part of miniature living landscapes, admired for its serene and graceful appearance.

Where Does the Donkey's Tail Burrito Originate?

Native to the rocky outcroppings of Japan, Hylotelephium Sieboldii has evolved to thrive in well-drained soil with minimal water. Its succulent leaves store water, allowing it to survive in the dry, mountainous regions.

How Do You Care for a Donkey's Tail Burrito?

Caring for a Donkey's Tail Burrito involves providing lots of light, ideally a few hours of direct sunlight, and using a well-draining soil mix. Water sparingly, only when the soil is completely dry to the touch, to mimic the drought-like conditions of its natural habitat.

Are Donkey's Tail Burrito Toxic to Pets?

Hylotelephium Sieboldii is generally considered non-toxic to pets. However, as with many succulents, it's best to keep it out of reach as overeating any plant material can potentially cause digestive upset in animals.

    Awful customer service

    My order placed on 15th Aug finally arrived on 29th Aug. I emailed photos of the Mother of Thousands, it was rotted at the base & all the leaves had fallen off. Despite issues with the Couriers DX I requested another plant by a different courier ( Royal Mail) but customer service said that wasn't possible as they only used DX. I was offered a 35% discount & advice how to propagate the leaves !! Finally got a refund & that they had assessed my photos incorrectly. Will never use this company again. Beware !!!
