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
Hemerocallis with darker flowers hold their vibrant colours best when they can enjoy some light afternoon shade. Avoid planting in full shade, but position the plants so that full sun doesn’t bleach the flowers all day long.
How to Water
Water Hemerocallis thoroughly after planting and regularly during the growing season. Aim to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged as they don’t like soggy roots. Once established, Hemerocallis are generally drought tolerant, however, you may notice fewer flowers in dry soil.
How to Plant
For the best show of flowers, plant Hemerocallis in full sun or partial shade in moist but well-draining soil. Backfill the hole ensuring the crown is level with the soil surface and gently firm down.
