SCS Landscaping / Plant Layout

Plant Spacing Calculator

Estimate rows and plant count from bed dimensions, on-center spacing, layout pattern, and a visible edge allowance.

Layout inputs

Set the planting geometry

Use the mature on-center spacing and verify site obstacles before installation.

Method And Limits

A layout estimate, not a planting prescription.

Plant habit, mature size, design intent, curves, access, utilities, setbacks, and existing features still require field judgment.

Rectangular

Rows align in a grid.

Rows and plants use the entered on-center spacing after the edge allowance is removed from both sides.

Triangular

Rows are staggered.

Row spacing uses spacing x 0.866 and alternating rows offset by half the entered spacing.
