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
Cut back Persicaria plants after flowering to maintain their shape and encourage fresh growth for next season.
How to Water
Water regularly to keep the soil moist, especially during dry spells. Persicaria prefers consistent moisture but dislikes soggy soil. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.
How to Plant
Plant Persicaria in well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball, place the plant, and backfill with soil. Space plants about 45-60cm apart for good airflow and growth.
