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.

Instructions
Top Tip
Cranberries require a cold dormancy period in winter to fruit properly. Ensure they receive enough chill hours for the best harvest.
How to Water
Cranberries need consistent moisture, especially during fruiting. Water deeply to keep the soil moist, but not soggy. In dry periods, water regularly to mimic their natural bog habitat.
How to Plant
Plant cranberries in acidic, well-drained soil. Choose a sunny spot, and dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball. Space plants 45-60cm apart. Cranberries thrive in raised beds or bog-like conditions.
