Double Play® Red Spirea

Spiraea japonica

Double Play Red Spirea produces clusters of dainty flowers that emerge bright reddish pink in the spring. Its new foliage is also nearly red. The leaves then fade to a dark green throughout the rest of the year. It grows 2 to 3 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide with a compact form.

This shrub prefers full sun but will grow in some shade. It will adapt to a wide range of soils but performs best with even moisture. It works very well in groups and as foundation plants. It can also form a low hedge.
