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:

Seem to be doing well on a dry rocky slope

I purchased 26 ice plants in a few varieties and planted them in August and September. I also planted some Sweet Woodruff and they didn't do as well because of the heat.

I lost some of the ice plants, probably due to deer, but for the most part they seem to be growing well. There is a lot of erosion on the slope north of our pool and I am hopeful that these will cover the area next Spring and help solve that problem.

One of my better purchases from Great Garden Plants up to this point.

It has settled in well and started blooming. The flower size is much smaller than my other ice plants that I got last year from same place I hope the size gets bigger as plant matures.

We’re sorry you’re not satisfied with your plants! On each product page and our plant sizes page, we note that all of our plants are young. The size of our plants varies depending on the time of year and whether they were recently trimmed. The most important thing when purchasing plants, online or in garden centers, is a full and robust root system, which we prioritize. Trimming only encourages stronger root development! All orders are covered by our 60-day guarantee, so please reach out to claims@greatgardenplants.com to start the claims process if necessary.
