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 ordered 18 of these a couple years ago. After they settled in, the second year they did great. Subsequent years they were leggy and eventually died out despite adequate care. I ordered and planted another 16 replacement plants this year (double-checking their light and water needs, etc.), and they are already leggy and unhappy in full sun. Now that I use an app that tells me how often to water them, I got a warning that this type of plant shouldn’t be in full sun. Had I known that, I would’ve have ordered these for my front yard. These are taking extra care to keep them alive and they are still unhappy. This was not a great planting experience, although customer service for other plants have been great. My backyard (part sun) spaces with these have been much better.
