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:

Was surprised it already had two blooms when it arrived. Growing well and can’t wait for it to grow bigget.
We are most pleased with the way the order was shipped, the time it took to get here, and the quality of the plants when they arrived. We ordered plants from Great Garden Plants years ago. We'll be back a lot sooner this time! Would add a photo but didn't take any and it's dark out now!
Were these already delivered? Nit in garden or on Berm.
All 3 cultivars of Coneflowers I ordered were delivered promptly and in good shape.
The plants were difficult to remove from the packaging. The stems were bent on many of the plants and after removing them, some broke completely. Two of the plants are doing well, one died fairly soon after planting, and the rest are just...there. I was disappointed.
