How to pair a decorative pot

For no fuss or mess you can place the plant in its growing pot (the pot it arrives in) inside a decorative one. This allows allows excess water to be drained after watering.

For a good fit the opening (not diameter) and height of the new decorative pot need to be several centimetres greater than the current growing pot. Here is how we measure and list pot sizes:

Remember to take into account tapering, as the internal height of a pot will be measured from the centre to the top but the sides will taper in a rounded pot.

We recommend using a liner to protect your decorative pot and prevent leaking (whether placing the nursery pot inside or repotting directly into the decorative pot).

Care Instructions

When your plant arrives, follow these simple steps to help it settle into its new home.

For plant specific detail read our full care guide.

  • Choose a suitable place with appropriate light - check our Light Guide
  • Carefully remove the plant from its packaging and allow it to adjust to its new environment.
  • Before watering, check the soil with your finger. If the top few centimetres feel dry, water lightly. If still moist, allow the soil to dry before watering.
  • Ensure the plant sits in a well-draining pot or nursery container, allowing excess water to drain away. (If planted follow our potted plant advice here)
  • Avoid moving the plant frequently during the first few days, allowing it time to acclimatise to its new surroundings.
  • Check your plant regularly and adjust watering and light as needed.

Following these simple steps will help your plant establish and thrive in its new space.

Plants often take 7–10 days to begin adjusting to a new environment -  light and temperature conditions - and some leaf movement or drop during this period is completely normal.
