How Big are Wildflower Plug Plants

Customers often ask us how big are our wildflower plug plants. Below we set out how they are produced and  provide some photos to show the size. The most common way to buy wildflower plants is as plug plants. You can also buy them in 9cm pots. These cost more but the plant is more developed. There are some micro plugs on the market but we would suggest with wildflowers these are to be avoided.
