Spiraea (Spirea, Meadowsweet)​

  • Spireas are a highly useful group of tough landscape plants.
  • Their tolerance of pollution make them an excellent choice for urban landscapes.
  • Most will tolerate drought once established and can handle some light shade.
  • We recommend a soft shear after flowering to encourage rebloom and maintain a tidy habit.
