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:

Pollinators play a vital role in our ecosystems, gardens, and especially our food chain. Flowers produce pollen as a means of reproduction. While there are so many pollinator-friendly plants to choose from, here are seven of our favorites. You’ll love them, and the pollinators will too.
I have a bunch of monardas and thought I would add PMP to my collection. I planted it in part sun, like my other monardas and gave it plenty of breathing room with irrigation to establish itself. Unfortunately, this plant developed powdery mildew, which I thought was strange, since none of my other monardas have ever had mildew issues. The plant itself is full and well rooted, but the mildew has made it impossible to admire it. I don't know if I should throw it out, move it to full sun or medicate it to avoid spreading mildew throughout my garden....

Haven’t had a lot of luck with these. Two of them died out right, two others contracted the leaf mold, so disappointed because these are such pretty flowers.

I purchased this bee balm a couple years ago. It’s now coming into its own with lush flowers. I should get more. The butterfly on it is a great spangled fritillary that has been blown around by the wind for a couple days.
Just received my plants and they were packed perfectly. Very healthy and sturdy! Can't wait to plant them!
We ordered five plants but two didn’t survive and the remaining three haven’t flowered yet. These were a gift so I am very disappointed.

In regards to flowering. Keep in mind that when transplanting young plants from a nursery pot to a garden, the plant allocates more energy to root development instead of shoot development (above ground). It's important for them to develop a robust root system so they can actually absorb the nutrients and water in the soil around them. Then after their root system is more developed they'll invest in their shoots and flower development. They generally spend their first year growing roots in their new home, the second year they have more energy to put into growth, and the third year, they are growing and flowering vigorously. This applies to plants in the garden center as well as plants you purchase online. We hope this helps. Happy Gardening!
