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.

Polemonium plants thrive in moist, well-drained soil. Deadheading spent flowers can encourage a longer blooming season.
How to Water
Water Polemonium regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. During dry periods, ensure the plant receives enough water to prevent wilting, but avoid overwatering.

Plant Polemonium in well-drained, moist soil in a location with partial to full sunlight. Dig a hole large enough to accommodate the root ball and place the plant at the same depth it was in the pot. Backfill with soil and water well.
