House Plant Size Guide
House plants come in a wide array of shapes and sizes depending on the variety and maturity of the plant.
6cm/12cm/15cm/19cm/23cm nursery pots are the most common size of pot that they are sold in. This measurement is the diameter at the top of the pot.
12cm potted plants are the most popular providing great value for money and an instant impact. Larger plants that come in pots of 20cm+ are great for making a statement in any room and can represent years of growth to get to that level of maturity and size.

Top Tip
Prune your Schefflera regularly to encourage bushy growth and remove any leggy or damaged stems. Turn the plant every few weeks to ensure even light exposure and prevent it from leaning toward the light source. Wipe the leaves gently with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep the foliage looking fresh and vibrant.
How to Water
Water your Schefflera when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry to the touch. Use lukewarm water to avoid shocking the roots, and ensure any excess water drains away to prevent root rot. Reduce watering frequency during the winter months when growth slows, but avoid letting the soil dry out completely. Mist the leaves occasionally to increase humidity, especially in centrally-heated homes.
How to Plant
To plant a Schefflera, choose a pot with drainage holes and fill it with well-draining potting soil, such as a mix designed for houseplants. Position the plant in bright, indirect light to encourage healthy growth, as direct sunlight may scorch its leaves. When repotting, ensure the root ball sits just below the rim of the container, and firm the soil around the base gently. Water thoroughly after planting to help the soil settle and provide an even distribution of moisture.
