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:
Hand-picked at our greenhouse

Arrives as young plant
Very nice plant. Too many emails from supplier though. If I had known I would be pestered to death, I never would have ordered from them.
After a little protesting, these guys started showing off. Even during a heat wave, a month after planting. Watering regularly to get them through and they're happy as can be. So am I!
Arrived healthy. Already setting up new shoots and buds
Has been planted and is growing well!
I have lots of varieties of Nepeta and Calaminta. It attracts bees and the rabbits don't like to eat it. I had never seen an orange variety! The plants arrived healthy and I planted them in two spots to see which pleased them the most. The sunnier spot seemed better and they already have a few blooms. I am looking forward to next year to see how they do.
