Description
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:
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:

My Temple of Bloom Seven Sons Flower and Wildberry Heuchera arrived in the best shape of any plants I have ever ordered online! The packaging was amazing and the potting soil they were planted in was still moist. The Seven Sons Flower was very small, but I expected that and it more than makes up for the size with the vigor. The plant description online was accurate. The Heuchera was good-sized, comparable to a quart to gallon size at the local nursery. I got them in the ground right away and neither shocked. I was so happy with my purchase of these two that I ordered 5 more plants from Great Garden Plants and was just as happy with that order when they arrived. All are planted, either in pots or in the ground. Now it's up to me to keep them as alive and healthy as they were when they arrived!
The plants arrived healthy in Michigan and are still healthy, I guess if I have a dislike is the wide variation between plants.
One is chock full of roots and is twice as large as the second plant that is much smaller with a much smaller root ball.
I'm sure next year both will fill out but I can't quite understand why two plants of the same specie and the same cost can vary so much.

Love them. They look great when I got them and I can't wait to plant them
Beautiful. I ordered 5 and 4 are thriving. One was unhealthy from delivery and it finally bit the dust.

I'm usually very happy with my orders from Great Garden Plants, but the two coral bells I ordered are ridiculously small. I contacted customer service and was told that they look healthy. Very disappointed.
