This is for what makes plants grow taller. All plants have a "Mature" height. This is the maximum height a plant will reach under ideal growing conditions. A plant will grow tall if it is looking for light, unfortunately this is not desirable as the plant will eventually outgrow itself and become too weak to support itself.
To make a plant grow to its maximum height, a good growing medium is essential. Different plants need different mixtures, for ex. a succulent, like a cactus, or aloe vera, need loomy soil which has a lot of sand in it.
For most ornamental type plants, a good " Container Mix" is recommended. This consists of peat moss, compost, top soil, and is rich in nutrients. For outdoor plants I will dig a hole twice the size of the root ball, or the plants pot size and backfill (filling the hole until it is the size of the plant's pot) with a good container mix (you can make your own with the above-mentioned components).
I will then mix the right amount (according to manufacturer's directions) Osmocote into this soil. Osmocote is a good time-release, pelletized fertilizer. Daily watering is also essential, provided it isn't raining too much where you are.
If you want tall plants, then you need to buy tall plants. When buying shrubs and outdoor ornamentals, this info is on the plant's tag.
DO NOT PLANT YOUR PLANTS CLOSER THAN IS RECOMMENDED ON THE TAG
People often to this to "Fill in" an area. A lot of so-called professionals will do this also. After a couple of years, you will have a big mess on your hands. Be patient and plant according to the supplier's tag. Even if you plant is only 10" wide, and 12" high, it will reach its "mature" size which could be 10 feet wide x 12 feet tall in 4 -10 years depending on the plant.
I would recommend you purchase a good gardener's book. Buy one that is sturdy as you will take it outside with you as I have with mine. Reader's Digest makes a good one.
Definitely mulch.

The plants in soil with worms will grow taller than those without worms. The worm play an integral role in which they allow plants to absorb more water and nutrients and thereby growing taller.
