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:

I Love Walker's Low Catmint

I ordered twelve of these Walker's Low Catmint plants in April of 2022, and they have honestly been my pride and joy ever since. It's such a showy and easy plant. It also is VIOLENTLY purple when the blooms are fresh, I swear they can see these from the space station. So if you are looking for color these are wonderful. I've never found something else that keeps color so well all season long.
I have deer in my yard almost daily and they have never bothered these. They are also the absolute hub for all bees and butterflies in a mile radius and I sometimes see hummingbirds as well.
I do live in a high-altitude desert with poor soil quality, lots of sand. These are very waterwise. I water them maybe once a week with a soaker hose, sometimes less.

Most look healthy

I ordered 5 Walker's Low Catmint. The box was delivered crushed but most of the contents looked healthy except for one, which I planted anyway, but it didnt survive. After emailing claims twice and sending a picture, I am still waiting for customer service to contact me regarding replacing the plant but I have yet to hear from them although they responded to my review and requested what i already sent them (seemingly just for show).

Exploding with Growth

The plants (especially the flowers) don't look anything like those in the description pictures but they are growing very well and are full of blooms. More than I expected for the first year.

All of our product photos do feature mature plants. The difference in blooms your seeing could be due to age in the landscape. We are thrilled to hear you're satisfied with your plants. Happy gardening!
