Is there a table that compares pot sizes at all?
Does 1 litre equate to a standard cm measurement?
Looking to buy *a lot of 5in ones to pot stuff up for a NGS plant sale
and not sure what that would be in cm or square!!

A 1 litre pot is about 5" diameter. *But you can get 1 litre pots as
'long toms', which are narrower but longer and which we use for sweet
peas.
Trehane have a handy table on their site which shows the size pots
their Camellias are sold in:http://www.trehanenursery.co.uk/plan...nd-pricing.php
and these people sell qite a variety: *http://www.thegardensuperstore.co.uk...ght_Plant_Pots....
