New pot sizes for new plants
| |
The Shrubs and Ground Covers range
are not as quick growing like strappy leaf plants and grasses when it
comes to establishment. For this reason Ozbreed has agreed with
Government authorities and therefore minimum size of plants for sale will be 90mm pots. 140mm pots are even better for these types of plants. Trialling
with Government authorities shows that results of planting and
establishment are adversely affected by using planting sizes any smaller
than 90mm pots.
