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.

I ordered a weeping fig and a spider plant. They arrived promptly and safely. I am delighted with my purchase. Highly recommend.
Truly amazing my plants arrived quickly and in perfect condition. The plants, four of them, had all been careful packed to protect their leaves and branches.
We are delighted with the ficus, delivered in good condition and it’s a nice shape.
All Good! Great little plants to add to a growing collection, look healthy, arrived as promised! What’s not to love ❤️
This is the 2nd time I have sent gifts using this service. Everyone was delighted with the quality of the plants and pot. The delivery was just as required with a time slot.
Pleasant surprise. It is a first company which has thought about everything. Even securing a compost in a pot, wrapping in paper. Absolutely first class service.

Eves Pin Cactus orderedFaultless first time purchase.
First time using houseplant.co.uk so was understandably apprehensive as the cactus I wanted does not like the dark or cold/ damp conditions at all which can occur using deliveries especially so far away from my location, but I wanted this specific plant for a gift so couldn't shop local. I shouldn't have worried. My plant arrived the next day in very good condition as had been packaged very well with extreme care to limit movement in transit as much as possible and importantly delivered with equal care. The delivery came with clear instructions for how to care for plant and acclimatise to surroundings , plus the purchase price with delivery was very reasonable taking advantage of the sale price made it an even better experience. Very straightforward & professional transaction throughout and would definately recommend.

Eves Pin Cactus ordered with other itemsGreat packing
The way of the packaging of the plants is just amazing. The delivery person didn't really handle the parcel with care (I saw him from the window) but the plants were so nicely packed that they didn't damage at all. The only downside is the expensive orchid is infected with something as the leaves has black and brown spots on them. I hope it will survive. Other than that I'm very happy with my purchase.
