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
Came healthy and started growing immediately! It’s now starting to bud, can’t wait!
I ordered Miss Molly Butterfly bush October 4, 2024 and 7 months later it is blooming. It's very small but I can't wait until it reaches it mature height of 5 ft.
I was very disappointing to see how small these so called bushes were.....I would call it a bush but a sapling !
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!

Excellent plant.
Plants were packaged well and in good shape. I ordered butterfly bush, honeysuckle and diervilIa. They are healthy with good roots.
You have to be careful when you order from online companies: you don't know what you're going to get. Because these plants are healthy and were packaged exceptionally well, I plan to order more plants from butterflybushes.com. I also will be recommending this company to others looking to order online. Thank you!
