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 bought this as it was listed as a 21 inch high plant. It is an 8 inch high plant, with (in theory) 21 inch flower spikes. My spikes are only 4 - 6 inches, and so this will need to be moved - definitely not a mid-border plant. I got 4-5 anemic blooms after a longer than expected dormancy period, and she wilts easily. Maybe next year... but not impressed yet.

The Geums I received were healthy, green and very substantial in size. The packaging was the best that I have seen from any online nursery. Great Garden Plants is my "go to" place to get the best plants. Thank you.
Plants were delivered quickly and were really a good size and well grown. They are settling in nicely.
never grew
Hello! Thank you for leaving feedback. 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.

Unfortunately, they were all died, when they were arrived, they all had rotted leaves which I thought that was totally normal because of the transportation, I was hoping they would recover, but been struggling until they were all gone after one another. I can't take pictures because all the leaves were gone and the roots were rotten, but I have no problem with drainage, maybe it's just because of the high heat.
