Understanding Plant Pot Sizes

When you’re choosing plants, you’ll often see sizes listed as #1, #2, or #3 containers. These numbers refer to the volume of the pot, not the age of the plant.

#1 Pot – Holds about 1 gallon of soil. These are small starter plants, great for tight spaces or filling in around larger features.

#2 Pot – Holds about 2 gallons of soil. A medium size that balances affordability with faster establishment in the landscape.

#3 Pot – Holds about 3 gallons of soil. These larger plants give more immediate impact and tend to establish quickly.

Bigger pots generally mean more mature root systems, but the right choice depends on your project goals, timeline, and budget.
