One of the biggest mistakes I see gardeners make when laying out a new garden is plant spacing.
When laying out your design, check on the mature size of your plants. At Pine Forest Gardens, we print the mature size on the pot tag for each plant (see photo).
🌿🌦️Giving each plant the proper space allows it to get adequate nutrients, water, sunlight, and good air circulation. Your plants will be healthier, and your garden will look full but not crowded as the plants mature.
