Spiraea Plants
Compact flowering shrubs with seasonal color and easy landscape performance
Spiraea is a versatile group of deciduous shrubs widely used in American landscapes for their dependable flowering, neat growth habit, and broad adaptability. They are valued for spring or summer blooms, fine-textured foliage, and strong performance in both residential gardens and commercial projects. Many varieties stay compact, making them suitable for small yards, foundation plantings, and mass plantings without constant pruning.
In Bay Area and broader California conditions, Spiraea fits well into mixed shrub borders, low hedges, and accent plantings. Their seasonal interest extends beyond flowers, with many cultivars offering fresh spring foliage, clean summer structure, and warm fall color.
