    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Similar to 'Little Princess' Spirea but smaller and shorter, this variety has lovely deep green foliage and light pink flowers in May and June. It will flower the rest of the year but not as vigorously. Pink Mound Spirea is one of the better varieties for use as a small border plant. It looks best when pruned into a formal shape but also works well when left to naturally form clumps up to three feet wide.
