PLANTING DISTANCES 
Perennials should be planted 18 
inches apart as a general rule. Some 
large growing types may need to be 
planted slightly farther apart. For 
borders and edging with dwarf va- 
rieties you will want to plant 6 to 
12 inches apart. We give the aver- 
age matured height in the descrip- 
tions of all perennials so that you 
may find it easy to plan your plant- 
ings.

PLANT PERENNIALS 
FOR MASS EFFECT 
Perennials should always be 
planted in groups of three or 
more for best color effect. Two

dozen plants, 
planted in a bed will not produce 
nearly the effect that two dozen 
plants, four or six of a kind, will 
produce.
