There are many old-fashioned favorites among the spirea as well as many newly developed favorites. In fact, some varieties have been used in gardens for over 300 years. A member of the rose family, spireas are tough plants. Distinguished by their size, bloom color and season of bloom, spireas all have small leaves and fine, twiggy branches. Once established, they are drought tolerant.
Ours is a spring blooming variety rather than summer known as Bridal Wreath and grows by the fence post at north end of the garden. It was purchased at Arbor Gate and planted last spring. We hope it will continue to grow and bloom in the spring for many years. Enjoy especially from the vantage point of the gazebo.
