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
Deadhead faded blooms regularly to encourage continuous flowering and a tidy appearance. Ageratum F1 varieties are loved for their fluffy, long-lasting blooms and are excellent for pairing with other bedding favourites in vibrant summer displays.
How to Water
Keep soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells or in containers. Water at the base to avoid splashing the leaves and blooms. Although Ageratum is tolerant of short dry periods, prolonged dryness can reduce flowering and stunt growth.
How to Plant
Plant Ageratum F1 in fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny or lightly shaded spot. These compact bedding plants are perfect for edging borders, filling gaps, or mass planting for a soft haze of colour. Space plants around 15–20cm apart to allow for neat, bushy growth.
