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:

Hostas are known for commanding attention in the shade garden. Learn how to grow hostas, transplanting hostas, when they bloom, why your hosta is turning brown, and more to grow them like a pro.
I'll probably only order in the Fall or early Spring. The journey from the nursery to our home is too hot. This company packages much better than others; still, UPS mis-handles the shipments too much. The last shipment was the best, and I'm looking forward to seeing 'Time in a Bottle' Hosta in bloom.
Excellent service!
The poor plants you have shipped me really take a beating being shipped. But you pack them very well and after arrival I first water them. Within two days I repot them. So far, all the plants you have shipped are doing fine. I will bring them all indoors for the winter then in the spring will plant them in the garden.
We apologize that you received plants that are not up to our standards. While we try our best to provide exceptional service, some factors, like shipping and handling, are outside our control, and issues like this can sometimes happen. Please email pictures of the plants to claims@greatgardenplants.com, making sure to put your order number and name in the subject line so that we may provide the best assistance possible.
My plants are still relatively new but are looking great. I'm anxious to see the reemerge next spring and put on growth.
