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.

How to Water
Water young plants regularly during their first growing season, keeping the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Once established, Echinacea is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering.
How to Plant
Plant Echinacea in well-drained soil in a sunny location. Dig a hole as deep as the root ball and twice as wide. Place the plant in the hole, backfill with soil, and firm gently. Space plants 30-60cm apart. Water thoroughly after planting to help them settle.
