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.

Water well until established. After this, feverfew is drought tolerant and only needs to be watered during dry spells.
How to Plant
Choose a bright spot in full sun or partial shade and plant feverfew in well-draining soil. Dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball and carefully position the plant inside. Backfill with soil and compost, gently firming as you go, and water in well. Leave around 30cm between plants.
