#ProPlantTips for Care:

Japanese Spirea produces its best color in full sun but can tolerate part sun. Spireas have a tolerance to most well-drained soils, are highly adaptable to moisture levels once established and have a wide range of sun needs! Once established, they are also drought tolerant. It is recommended that you shear right after flowering since deadheading leads to additional blooms later in the season.

  • Full Sun & Partial Shade
  • Moderate Moisture
  • Adaptable to Most Well-Drained Soil Types
  • Shear/Deadhead/Prune After Flowering
  • Reblooming & Cold Hardy
