Not sure which size to pick? We use nursery pot diameter as a simple way to help you compare plants and choose the right one for your space.
6 cm pot (plug)
Tiny, cute and full of potential. A great choice if you love watching your plant grow and develop from an early stage.
8–9 cm pot
Still compact, but already nicely established. Perfect for your indoor growth cabinet!
10.5–12 cm pot
More established, fuller and ready to make a statement. The perfect pick if you’re looking for an eye-catcher!
Pot diameter is a helpful indication of a plant’s size, but every variety has its own way of growing. Some naturally grow much larger than others, even when they share the same pot size.

Ouch! The Cyrtosperma Johnstonii is anything but ordinary, with huge arrow-shaped leaves, reddish-brown undersides and long petioles beautifully mottled in shades of green, white, brown and pink. Look a little closer and you’ll spot the sharp spines running along those stems, giving this tropical giant an almost prehistoric look. As she matures, Johnstonii can grow into a seriously impressive plant, reaching several metres in height in the right conditions. Native to the Solomon Islands, she naturally belongs in warm, wet tropical surroundings. Get yourself a dinosaur plant!
Give your Cyrtosperma Johnstonii plenty of bright, indirect light to support strong growth and vibrant colours. Cyrtospermas prefer their soil to stay lightly and consistently moist, but don’t like soggy conditions! Water when the top layer of soil starts to feel dry. During spring and summer, feed your Cyrtosperma with a balanced houseplant fertiliser every two weeks to support strong new growth and those impressive leaves. Cyrtospermas appreciate higher humidity, so aim for 60% or higher where possible, with good airflow around the leaves. Only repot when your plant becomes root-bound, moving up to a pot around 3 cm wider in diameter. Always use a well-draining soil mix that holds some moisture without staying wet, in a pot with drainage holes to keep its roots happy.
