How far apart do I plant burning bush plants for hedge

Question

I want to make a hedge. How far apart do I plant the original plants?

Answer 1

Plant spacing is determined by the plant species and hedge type. Plants in a sheared, formal hedge are generally planted 1 to 2 1/2 feet apart. Shrubs in an informal, natural hedge should be spaced further apart. A spacing of 2 to 4 feet is appropriate for medium-sized (6 to 8 feet tall) shrubs. Large shrubs (8 to 12 feet tall) can be spaced 4 to 6 feet apart. Check the mature sizing on the variety of Burning Bush that you choose.
