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:

Description Striking blooms of Green Twister coneflower (Echinacea purpurea) put a twist on classic flower color combinations. The eclectic mix of bright green and magenta petals makes this echinacea stand out from the crowd.  The best part is you can admire continuously blooming flowers all season long with no deadheading. This coneflower was selected and tested by Jelitto Seeds, an award-winning seed company in Germany. Jelitto Seeds spent years improving this strain, resulting in hardy plants with ultra-stiff stems that don't bend under extreme weather conditions. Their diligent work paid off with Green Twister!

SO HAPPY TO RECEIVE A HEALTHY PLANT!

My first time ordering with this company and I was so thrilled to actually received a plant (and not a dried up root). The plant is healthy and was very safely and securely shipped. Shipping was very fast! I will order from this company again!

Rabbits!

Coneflowers arrived in great shape, some with blooms. After planting, our friends, the bunny rabbits, celebrated. Now working on better fencing and hoping for some new growth.
