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
Prune Nandina in late winter or early spring to remove old, woody stems and encourage fresh, vibrant growth.
How to Water
Water Nandina regularly during the first growing season to establish strong roots. Once established, it is drought-tolerant but benefits from occasional watering during extended dry periods.
How to Plant
Plant Nandina in well-draining soil with access to full sun or partial shade. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and as deep. Place the plant, backfill with soil, and firm gently. Space multiple plants 60-90cm apart. Water thoroughly after planting to settle the soil.
