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:

Absolutely wonderful addition to my garden planters
Ordered 2 of these in 2023 and they did horribly. Never flowered. Few leaves. Had higher hopes that with a little tlc they'd come back stronger this year... but they look awful as of April 2024. They are struggling to put on leaves and they have the most stunted, awkward branches. I don't think they are worth the cost, which is a shame because the picture of them is so pretty. Perhaps buy the larger 1 gallon size to get a more established plant. The quart size is a joke.
We’re sorry you’re having trouble with your plants! It is completely normal for your hydrangea to lose its leaves in dormancy. Once temperatures begin to rise, your hydrangea should bounce back. Not to worry, our fall guarantee covers plants received after September 1 until May 2024, so we have you covered. Please send your order number and pictures of your plants to claims@greatgardenplants.com to start the claims process. We look forward to helping! https://bit.ly/ggp-guarantee
I thought these would look so beautiful! I ordered two. I tried one planted one in ground and one in pot. I had the worst luck I tried full sun, sun/shade and shade and both are almost dead. I was just out of guarantee. They did offer me a coupon, however I don’t want to buy a third.
Upon the arrival of the plants I noticed that both were very very thirsty and dry I kept them in their original containers/vases for the following three days and watered them regularly Although one seemed in a reasonable shape the other one seemed close to a final death and lost all of its leaves. I any case I decided to plant both my Hydrangeas in the large vases were they were meant to go. I am happy to say that both are now alive The nearly dead one has now produced a few tiny little leaves on some of the thicker branches and should hopefully survive.
I was impressed with how my 2 small plants were packaged for delivery. They arrived healthy and green and have doubled in size already! I will certainly remember your quality care of plants when I am looking for an out-of-stock or unavailable plant my favorite nurseries aren’t carrying!
