Choose your plant size

Select the size in Size, next to the price. You will receive a plant in its growing pot in the size selected. The ceramic pot and accessories shown in the images are not included.

The liters indicate the pot's capacity and Ø its nominal diameter. A larger pot does not always mean a taller plant. Size, foliage, and flowering vary depending on the specimen and the season.

The heights are approximate from the supplier's catalog; if you need a specific measurement, contact us before purchasing.

Before choosing it

• Light: Bright shade or partial shade, protected from strong sun.
• Watering: Keep the soil slightly moist, without waterlogging it. Check the moisture before watering again and avoid leaving water to accumulate in the saucer.
• Where it fits: Bright shade patios, sheltered entrances, and large outdoor pots.
• Approximate adult size: A shrub that can reach 2.5–4 m in the ground over the years; in a pot, its growth is usually smaller. This does not correspond to the size at delivery.
• Flowering: Small white flowers on established specimens; the foliage is its main attraction.

Basic care
