Delphiums/Hollyhocks How Far Apart?

Well, my Delphiniums in the ground are planted about 10 inches apart and the leaves are touching now. I hope that the Hollyhocks are dwarf ones - they grow up to 8' tall in my garden! Why do you want to plant them in pots, Jacque? I would have though that they'd be top-heavy!

Well i lost the 1s from last year,4 some resons they stsrted 2 grow &were doing well but the frost seems to have killed them so im un sure about planting these1s out ?

Thanx for that Buzbee I did put loads of sharp sand around them&i seemed to work really well then they just broke off at the bottoms& never came back? Why would they break off @ground Level?

it was quite a dry wind proof spot my delps were planted&they only made it 2 5/6inchs high b4 the broke off :(My new 1s r a good size compard to my oold baby 1 :) so fingers crossed 4 them &hollyhocks:)
