Can not planting perennials in ground deep enough cause them not to sprout correctly or premature in some way?

My sister planted some flowers in my flowerbed, which she said were perennials. They recently sprouted out of ground about an inch or so, and are red in body and cone shaped. Is this a sign of not being planted deep enough, or premature sprouting of some sort? And if so, would covering with more dirt help even though they’ve already sprouted? Any insight on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Is it good to sprinkle used coffee grounds on your shrubs?

I got a bag from Starbucks for free last night. They told me to sprinkle it in my garden. Since I have no garden, just shrubs, is it a healthy idea for them to get this nourishment? I mean, coffee works for me but them?
