Phyllis Bide, that comes in a 3" band, then within a year she's 6 feet around & you have to move everyone else!) I'm planting Dudley Cross & giving her 6-8 feet...just in case.<br />Also, on another note- David Austin actually recommends purchasing 3 of the same Austin and planting them 18" apart for a fuller figure, so it couldn't be all bad. :)Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06736671410392108226noreply@blogger.com
