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
I do not want this published because it will put you in a bad light. My plants are not doing well at all. In fact 2-3 of the 9 might not make it. Everything else I have ever ordered from you has been great and thriving in my yard. The Campanula have not. :-(
I’ve bought many perennials from Great Gardens. This particular speedwell and 2 campanulas arrived in 90 degree PNW heat. Lots of dead leaves and wilt but with great care trimming all leaf loss out and watering, only the speedwell came back and is doing well now. Our weather turned much cooler and waited to plant it in oak barrel during that period of time. If not for the crispy leaf loss, I would give it 5 stars.
Now the 2 campanulas arrived destroyed. No saving. All stems brown and crispy. Stems desiccated. Going into the trash. Sad. Earlier in the season bought some of these and arrived in great condition. Flourishing now. Am asking for refund yet no response as of yet. Normally the response is quick when an issue arises. Not this time tho.

Thanks for replacements. They are doing good
1 of the 2 plants died within a few days of receiving.
Thank you for your feedback! It’s surprisingly normal for newly transplanted plants to appear like they aren’t growing. That’s because most of the growth occurs below ground in their first year as they allocate more energy to root development. Once your plant is established, it will start investing more in shoot and flower development.
