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:

I bought 6 of these and planted them in full sun and watered them nearly every day since it has been a hot summer. 4 are doing well, one suffered but will survive and one almost died completely. I thought it was totally gone but little sprigs are perking up out of nowhere. Yeah! I mentioned my issue to Great Gardens and they figured it was probably due to the weather but were gracious to offer replacements anyway. I think these will fill in soon and look great.
I was very impressed with the packaging during shipping. One of my plants was very small compared to the others which was a little bit disappointing. I left him out for a day before planting. It’s been about four days and they’re starting to turn brown, but I’m hoping that’s just the process of them acclimating to their new location. Fingers crossed they take! I’ll will keep you posted on the progress.
They came nicely filled in and healthy, easy enough to pop them out of their nursery pots and into my yard. Month later and they are still doing good.

I removed plants from packaging and watered and let sit for a day or two before planting. By time I planted they were dead.
