Plant Spacing

Plant spacing is based on the ultimate width of the plants. This figure is normally given as a range; for example, 3-5’. If you live in a cold climate and/or want plants to fill in more quickly, plan to space at the shorter end of the range. If you live in a warm climate, are on a limited budget, or are willing to wait longer for plants to touch, use the higher end of the range. Using the larger number is recommended when calculating distance from a building or structure. There’s really no such thing as "maximum spacing": if you don’t want your plants to touch, you can space them as far apart as you’d like. All plant spacing is calculated on center, or in other words, the centers of the plants are spaced one half of their eventual width apart:

bush distance

Unless you are planting in a straight line, as you might for hedges or edging, space your plants in a staggered or zig-zag pattern for a more interesting and naturalistic look:

More Information

Description We can't say enough about the oh-so-sweet, butterfly-loving Biokovo cranesbill (Geranium x cantabrigiense). Delicate pale pink flowers with magenta stamens float above the fragrant foliage. Flowers bloom all summer long, and when fall rolls around, the foliage glows red. Some hardy geraniums fall apart and look tatty in the summer, but not Biokovo! You can always count on the striking, well-mannered foliage to stay tidy in the landscape. True hardy geraniums are perhaps one of the underutilized perennial groundcovers. Growing only 6" tall and 18" wide, Biokovo forms a dense mat that makes it hard for weeds to penetrate. Since it slowly spreads, it gradually makes its way through the garden, filling in gaps and holes. Discover how pretty it looks, spilling over sidewalks and boulders where its spreading habit is easily controllable. Details Botanical name: Geranium cantabrigiense 'Biokova'
Common name: Hardy geranium, Cranesbill
Zone: 5 - 8
Sun exposure: Sun (> 6 hours sun) to part-sun (4-6 hours sun)
Height x width: 6" X 18"
Flower color: Pale pink
Foliage color: Green
Season of interest: Summer - fall
Bloom time: Summer
Features: Wet soils, rain gardens, rabbit resistant, low flammability, heat tolerant, fragrant, deer resistant, container plants, best for beginners
Uses: Accent, alpine and rock, container gardening, cottage gardening, edging, ground cover, massing, naturalizing, rock garden, small spaces How To Grow Soil: Tolerant of most well-draining soils but prefers moderate fertility and moist soil.
Light: Sun (> 6 hours sun) to part-sun (4-6 hours sun). Plants prefer some part afternoon shade in the southern half of their growing zone.
Water: Average water needs. Established plants have some drought tolerance.
Spacing: 18 inches.
Fertilizing: Benefits from a light application of balanced, granular fertilizer in early spring.
Winterizing: No specific care is needed. Can leave foliage standing for winter and remove in spring when new growth begins.
Maintenance & pruning: Can prune anytime during the summer to shape the plant. Divide and move clumps in spring.

Biokovo cranesbikk

It’s only been in the ground a few weeks and it was slightly damaged on arrival but it’s rebounded quickly and has lots of new growth. I’m hopeful!

Biokova Cranesbill

My plants arrived in great shape and are now thriving in a rocky garden slope in my yard. They were very well prepared for shipment.

Beautiful & Healthy

I ordered 9 Biokovo Cranesbill plants, and they arrived exceptionally healthy and full. I followed instructions included in the shipment and planted them out after allowing them a few days to adapt to their new environment. They have taken well in their new home and are beginning to bloom after about a week in the ground (1st week of May). I am very impressed with how well they were packed and have already placed a second order with Great Garden Plants.

I thought I ordered Geranium Roxanne. the plant with a purple flower. Anyway I planted them and they seem to be doing ok.
