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:

Arrives as young plant
While vines may look effortless as they scamper over structures, many of them benefit from extra training to grow just the way you like. We'll break it down for each type, and even include examples from some of our great gardeners.
They had a tough time getting to my door. Packaged expertly only 1 branch was broken off. The other 3 were fine. I rooted it in water for 10 days and planted it with the other part. A week later it was not growing as well as the others. A closer look revealed another branch broken. It’s rooting now. Others are doing well.

These are my favorite vines, and they came in amazing shape. Quick ship, and great quality. The white is all growth in the dark packaging! Very happy and recommend these plants and this company!
Vigorous quick growing Covers a lot of ugly fencing
Plants arrived fast, well packed, and looking healthy. I have one in full sun and one in shade. The sunny one is growing very fast, while the shady one just fast, but both are vigorous and seemed to get over the transplant shock fairly quickly. Can’t wait to see the fall colors.
