What Are PB Sizes

Some of our larger plants are raised in different sized pint bags (PB), so we often refer to the size by saying PB3 or PB6. However, not everyone knows exactly what that means, so we’ll explain the sizes and what they look like.

Above we see most of the sizes that Bee Haven Gardens have used. From left to right, we have:

• 9cm pot
• PB2
• PB5
• PB6.5
• PB8
• PB28

PB refers to pint bag – 1 pint equals 600 mls, therefore a PB2 is 2 x 600 mls (1.2 liters). Some of our shrubs and most trees are in PB2. A few trees are sold in PB5. All our Perennials, Tomatoes and some shrubs are sold in either 9 cm pots or 1-liter pots.
