Answer
The best spacing for plants in new South Florida yards is at least three feet away from house walls to prevent moisture damage and allow airflow. For shrubs, spacing them about three to four feet on center reduces overcrowding and enhances storm resistance. This spacing avoids stress from humidity and allows plants room to grow without competing for nutrients. Proper spacing supports a lush, resilient front yard that handles Florida's wet season effectively.
