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
Rain gardens have taken the horticultural industry by storm, no pun intended. Here, Great Garden Plants answers all your questions about designing, planting, and caring for rain gardens.
The plant was in good shape, but it looked like a rabbit had chewed off some leaves. I got it planted and it looks healthy.
These plants were a good size and arrived healthy. They are now thriving in my garden.
Love this plant. Arrived on time and very healthy. These pics are from the first year I planted it. Took off right away. I have heavy clay soil and they still have done very well. I dug about 8 inches deep and added manure and compost mixed with the clay. They are thriving. This is also at the bottom of a slight slope so it gets all the drainage from the rains. It is doing very well.

Thank you for contacting us! We are sorry you never received this plant. Our customer service contact is info@greatgardenplants.com or 877-447-4769. We really need to hear from you.
I went ahead and refunded you for the one missing Sparkling Stars Pink Masterwort. Please allow up to 5-7 days for the refund to be processed.
What a treat! Instead of receiving little bare root stock, I received 3 lush & blooming plants! It’s always amazing to me that I live in an area that’s loaded with catalog nursery growers and cannot buy anything unique or different (they’re all wholesale). I have had 100% success with the plants I’ve purchased from you and always receive full, healthy specimens that have been packed so that nothing is crushed or damaged. Three orders placed this year…so far!
