Plant Sizes vs. Pot Sizes
We published our 2017 Price List with one subtle change: prices are based on average plant size instead of pot size. In reality, the two are equivalent and only the terminology has changed. Let's take a look!
First, a bit of background. We use several different standard nursery pots: most are round, but some are square, most are black, but some are orange, blue or green. These pots get their names from either their volume (e.g. one gallon / 1G) or the size of the top opening (e.g, 8" slit pots). Since our old price list was based on pot sizes, a common question was "what size is this?".
This year we decided to change our price list and use terminology that our customers can relate to: Small, Medium, Large and X-Large plants. Now a small plumeria is sold in a 'small' pot, a large plumeria is sold in a 'large' pot. Simple!
