It's impossible to tell without more context. It could also mean they could move between the plants, or for that matter, use the area between the plants as a restroom (the last option is unlikely).

In this sentence, "They could go between the plants" could mean different things depending on the context: 1. Movement: If "they" refers to people or animals, it likely means "they could move or pass between the plants." * Example: The children could go between the plants in the garden. 2. Placement: If "they" refers to objects, it could mean "they could be placed or positioned between the plants." * Example: Small decorations could go between the plants to make the garden look nicer. So yes, if you're talking about objects, it can mean "they could be placed between the plants." Let me know if you'd like more clarification!

Hi Les, would you mind sharing the full context? Without knowing the exact context, I think you're right. It could also mean "within" the plants, if there are lots of plants in an area. :)
