Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Top Tip
New stems produce the best winter colour, so prune back hard in March to promote fresh new growth.
How to Water
Water young plants regularly until they are well established. After this, dogwood is drought tolerant and only needs to be watered during particularly dry spells.
How to Plant
Choose a spot in full sun or partial shade and prepare the soil by removing weeds and adding organic matter. Dig a hole twice the size of the nursery pot, ensuring the soil is moist but well-draining. Place the plant in the hole and backfill with soil and compost, firming down gently as you go. Water in well.
