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:

Everything came healthy and as advertised
'Brilliance' Autumn Fern (Dryopteris)
Beautiful, healthy plants. Well packaged for shipping. I think the plants from Great Garden Plants are the best plants I have received through the mail.
I bought one last year to see if it would be happy. It was, although slow to put forth fronds last Spring. These two “siblings” are larger and seem to have transplanted well, so hopefully, next Spring all three will bring beauty to that corner bed. 🤞🏼
24 ferns came in perfect condition. They are growing like crazy now.
