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
Mazus reptans responds well to gentle foot traffic; occasional light stepping actually encourages tighter, denser growth.
How to Water
Water well after planting, then keep the soil lightly moist while the roots establish. Once settled, Mazus only needs occasional watering during dry spells.
How to Plant
Plant Mazus in well‑drained soil, spacing each plant 20-30cm apart so it has room to spread and form a soft, creeping mat. Water well after planting and keep the soil lightly moist while it settles in.
