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 am so impressed with all the plants I ordered this year from Great Garden Plants. It was my first time ordering mail order plants. They were packaged well and arrived quickly. The plants were in fabulous condition. None were rootbound. I especially appreciated the instructions provided for successful growth. The amsonia I ordered is doing well even after a significant drought. I watered well during the drought, but there is nothing like a healthy dose of rain. It transplanted well. Thank you Great Garden Plants.
I can't wait until next Spring to see these bloom!
Received very quickly. In really good condition. Very healthy and sturdy. Can't wait to see them growing in my flower beds. I will order from here again!
Arrive in good condition. They are doing well.
