Plant Spacing

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:

bush distance

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:

Tuscan Sun False Sunflower

Arrived on time but a little battered from her journey. I had to delay planting for about a week due to heavy spring rain. I kept them out of the sun and watered and when it was time to plant it took off. Has grown and thrived through the hot summer. Blooms are plentiful the first year.

Tuscan sunflowers

I just put my Tuscan sunflowers in the dirt about two weeks ago. The stems are nice and sturdy. I’m enclosing a picture because even though I knew they probably wouldn’t bloom this year. I’m getting a couple little sunflowers off the plants. I am very hopeful for next year that they will really come through for me. If I can keep them alive through the winter lol

The plant arrived very dehydrated and did not look very healthy. It looks like it is growing. I hope it survives the winter.
