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

Care Guide

The Ficus Ginseng requires good potting compost. Water when the top layer of the soil is dry to the touch with tepid water and regularly mist to create the perfect environment for this plant. Best to be placed in bright, indirect light. A drop in temperature or draughts can cause them to drop their leaves, which should reshoot after winter.

Light & Water Requirements

I have High water requirements and I am Happy in both light & shade.

    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. It was the most lovely experience to unwrap them one by one and see that each and every one had been packed with love. They look perfect sitting on my sideboard, and two days later look wonderful and very healthy. I can wait to order more, and I shall always be buying my plants from Houseplant in future. Well done guys xxxx Update: just posting another photo, as my houseplant family has grown. All my orders have arrived in perfect condition and are all giving me a wonderful feeling of joy thanks Houseplant. These plants are well loved. xxx

    Ordered x3 items,all came well protected and looked after,surviving the journey well. X2 we’re smaller than I expected but that’s my fault! X1 was much larger and had beautiful healthy flowers!look like they’re about ready to repot, with high quality soils and healthy looking roots. Would be perfect if there were some care cards (Ik you can look on the website but sometimes helpful to have a physical card!)
