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:

Herbs aren’t just for storing in your kitchen pantry; they have their place in your garden too! At Great Garden Plants, we are huge fans of adding herbs to the garden. Whether you harvest them for cooking or not, we’d still enthusiastically choose to grow them!
My first order of four plants came and they were nearly dead. However, due to great service I got four new plants and they appear to be doing great. Really appreciate when companies stand behind their service and product.
Hello! Thank you for your feedback. We are thrilled to hear about your positive experience with our customer service and hope to see another order from your again! Hapy gardening!
Much smaller than expected.
We’re sorry you’re not satisfied with your plants! On each product page and our plant sizes page, we note that all of our plants are young. The size of our plants varies depending on the time of year and whether they were recently trimmed. The most important thing when purchasing plants, online or in garden centers, is a full and robust root system, which we prioritize. Trimming only encourages stronger root development! All orders are covered by our 60-day guarantee, so please reach out to claims@greatgardenplants.com to start the claims process if necessary.
Gifted this baby to two friends who wanted a hardy rosemary in their herb gardens. I was so pleased with the plants and they are both thriving happily/ Love this site to order plants from.
I bought two to see if they really would survive and thrive after a cold Santa Fe, NM winter. They are doing nicely so far in the warm spring weather. Waiting to see though. Stay tuned!
I’ve been wanting to buy a new rosemary since the one I had was killed by Hurricane Ian last year. This time I’ll be planting it in a huge pot with a wheeled plant stand so I can move it easily. All the different plants I ordered were well packaged and arrived with minimal damage to them. I watered them, cut off the leaves that were damaged and they are doing great. In a day or two they are being planted in pots on my garden.
