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
Trim Rosemary regularly to promote bushy growth and prevent it from becoming leggy.
How to Water
Water Rosemary plants moderately, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Avoid overwatering, as they prefer drier conditions. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.
How to Plant
Plant Rosmarinus in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball, place the plant, and cover with soil. Space plants about 60cm apart. Water thoroughly after planting and add mulch to retain moisture.
