Okay, so I have two 12×12x9 ceder boxes and a 12×24x9 rectangle box as well. They have proper draining on the bottom and I have potting soil recommended to me by the fine people at Lowes. I am also thinking of putting a layer of small pebbles at the bottom of all the boxes to improve drainage.
I went out today and bought many different kinds of flowers including Shasta Daisies, English Daisies, bellflowers, Petunias, and Balloon flowers from the local nursery.
Now, my question is this… how many can I plant in each box?? Some of the flowers say plant so many inches apart, so does that mean I can plant them (for example) at the 4 corners of the square boxes? Then what happens to all that space in between? Also, to what extent can I mix flower types in the same box?

Sorry for such a detailed question, I am somewhat of a novice at this!
