A dwarf, compact plant with blue-green leaves and dainty, pink, powder puff flowers. An excellent landscape plant that combines well with other plants.
We ship larger plants than most leading mailorder nurseries. Ours are two year old plants in two gallon containers.

I love the reliability of this wonderful spirea. I cut it to the ground every fall and it rewards me with gorgeous, thick, vigorous growth and lots of baby pink flowers every spring. I have 7 of these in the front of my house, some backed by yews, and they are always gorgeous. They bloom along with many of the spring bulbs I have planted with them, and after the flowers, the foliage is a wonderful lime green. They are great to clump together, and mine have even re-seeded. I transplanted many seedlings to other parts of my yard and even gave enough to a neighbot that she now has a whole hedge of this wonderful spirea.

A hardy little shrub. Not picky about soil and will tolerate a bit of shade. Lovely through most of the season.

As Spireas go, this is probably one of the best to get. The flowers are pretty and bloom is on-going throughout the season (at least in my garden). I do find, however, that like most Spireas, this plant tends to get mangy looking after a few years and needs to be pruned down to the ground and regrown to look neat again. Fall foliage color was OK.

I have two Little Princess Spireas planted in my garden, they are the best shrubs I have planted. They have a nicely dense habit with small leaves of mint green that turn dark red in the fall. Cluster of pink flowers appear in June-July. They only need a light shearing in the spring to make a nicely shaped specimen.

Nice, dainty - almost airy blooms and foliage. I have it planted in a bed with Azaleas and Hostas, and it compliments them nicely. I even had a small flush of rebloom late in the summer.

This Spiraea has done very well for me, blooming in more shade than most. Both the foliage and flowers are lovely. Good for partial shade to full sun.
