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
Trim Parahebe after flowering to encourage new growth and maintain a compact shape.
How to Water
Water Parahebe regularly during its first growing season to establish roots, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged. Once established, it is drought-tolerant but benefits from occasional watering in prolonged dry periods.
How to Plant
Plant Parahebe in well-draining, moderately fertile soil in a sunny or partially shaded location. Dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball, place the plant, and backfill with soil. Space plants adequately to allow for spreading, and add mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
