Spiraea x vanhouttei

This mounding spirea bears white flowers in spring: a low-maintenance flowering shrub suited to mixed borders, foundation plantings, and mass plantings.

White flowers are produced in spring in dense clusters above the foliage.
Foliage is blue-green, contributing season-long colour beyond the bloom period.
Mounding habit, reaching 2 m at maturity; shear lightly after first bloom to encourage a second flush of flowers.
Best in full sun to partial shade with moist, well-drained soil.

Growing & Maintenance Tips

Flowers on previous year's growth, so any pruning for size or shape should be done soon after flowering. Tolerates many soils and conditions, however, it does not like wet feet.
