Cranesbill Geranium spacing and mature footprint

Space Cranesbill Geranium 2 ft apart, measured center to center (60 cm).

The mature spread is about 2.5 ft (75 cm), so plants set at that distance grow together into a solid mass.

Treat 2 ft as a planning baseline — cultivar and local growing conditions shift the final footprint.

Three plants set 2 ft apart, center to center; shaded circles show the 2.5 ft mature spread.
