Give Them Room to Wander

Some plants aren't particularly interested in heading upwards. Creeping and spreading growers can travel horizontally as they develop, which means the shape of their planter can become just as important as its overall size.

A wider planter gives these plants more surface area to grow across without necessarily putting a smaller root system into an unnecessarily deep or oversized pot. The right proportions will depend on the individual plant, so check its listing for any variety-specific growing recommendations.

If you're curious about the growth habit behind the setup, explore our Creeper collection. For plants that don't need a specialised planter shape, head to Standard Planter.
