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.

How to Plant
Plant lavender in full sun in light, well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball and boost the nutrients by adding in some organic matter. Water the hole, allowing it to drain well, then position the plant and backfill with soil, firming gently. Leave at least 35-45etween plants and water in well.
