How Does Landscape Direct Measure Plants?
Landscape Direct sells plants based off pot size, which is a generalized measure of a plants soil and root structure, and indicative of plants size based on the variety. As plants grow throughout the season, some varieties can double in size from April to August. To better understand and visualize our plant sizes, use our generalized sizing guide below. In addition, you can find any plants approximate size on arrival and maturity on its respective product page.
