Potted Plant Size Chart

Measure plant size by the longest stem in the pot, from the soil to the furthest leaf on the longest vine.

Plant Size	Pot Size	Shape	Pack Qty
6-10”	3”	Flat	1
6-10”	4-5”	Corner	1
6-10”	4-6”	Tower	4
10-14”	6-8”	Corner	2
10-14”	6-8”	Tower	6
14-18”	6-10”	Corner	3
14-18”	6-10”	Tower	8

 

1.) Hexagons are 4” point-to-point (or 100mm)

2.) Each base is 3” wide, stakes are 2” apart on the base. 

3.) Minimum pot size for one base is 2”

 

 

Plants

The recommendations in the size chart are based on average houseplant sizes. You may be able to trellis a plant on less packs, or you may need extra. It is dependent on the size of a plant’s stem, petioles, and foliage. 

Example:

A wispy and light plant like a Philodendron Micans will not need as much structure as a Monstera Deliciosa.

 

You may be interested in trellising more than one plant, in which case you would add up the height of each trellis to determine how many packs you need. Each pack will build two (5) hexagon trellises or one (10) hexagon trellis as shown in the picture. These are not the only arrangements you can build, but are the most common that we see.
