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
This hosta is adorable. It has a dense growth habit, and feels more firm than most hostas. It is great at the front of the bed. The photo is of it in its first spring, after planting it last summer.
Arrived in great condition and are thriving! My husband calls them hostages.
The plants were received in tip top condition. Packed so that they wouldn't get bent or broken or lose any soil from the pots. Didn't have to wait long for delivery. Looked at the garden shops in my area for the same plants before ordering them on-line and found they were charging twice as much. Would use this company again without hesitation. Have referred them to several of my neighbors already.
The shipping was so fast. They were packaged so well. They arrived with clear instructions on care and planting. I ordered several of these and they all see to be growing well.
So pleased with the strength and color of the plant. Sturdy plant. If I would want more plants of any kind, Great Garden Plants would be the first place I would go to.
I recommend this company highly.
