Spirea

Spirea are shrubs that create a big impact in the landscape scheme. Their versatility allows them to be used under trees, in perennial borders, Island beds and edging large shrubs. The larger Spirea can be planted alone or in groups as excellent focal points. Spring blooming Spirea are a welcome sight with spectacular white flowers. The pink flowers of the summer blooming Spirea sit above colored foliage from spring through to fall. Here are some of the many eye-catching Spirea we carry at our Garden Centre.
