Spirea (Bridal Wreaths)

Spirea (sometimes called bridal wreaths) are great for both novice and experienced gardeners alike for their eye-catching beauty, fast growth rate, hardiness and ease of care. Spirea bushes do very well as a focal plant in the landscape or as part of a larger grouping for a screen or border. The spirea shrub does best when planted in full sun or light shade. Planting the shrub in full shade results in stunted growth, and a reduction in the number and size of blooms.
