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:

The plants arrived looking great, and I immediately put them in the garden and did the appropriate watering. As of now, only one has shown any chance of blooming with a single skinny flower emerging. As of now, none of the others have shown any chance of blooming.
We're sorry you're having trouble with your plants. Plants can often experience something calles transpant shock when they are not acclimated properly before being planted in the ground. After unboxing, we recommed plants be placed in a cool, shaded spot out of direct sunlight for 24-48 hours after unpacking them. This allows them a recovery and acclimation period before planting. Our customer service team would love to hear from you, so please contact us at claims@greatgardenplants.com with your order number and photos of the plants. All orders are covered by our 60-day guarantee. We look forward to helping!
My plants arrived packaged carefully and in great condition. It’s taken a couple weeks, but all of the plants I ordered appear to be healthy and thriving! I’m so happy with how well the whole process went and look forward to ordering more plants next spring! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
It's thriving and beautiful! I'm super happy with my purchase from Great Garden Plants!
