Guía de cuidados

Plant in full sun in well-drained soil. Spirea is highly adaptable and grows in almost any soil. Water regularly in the first season; after that the plant is drought-tolerant. A light feed in spring promotes flowering.

Consejos de poda

Prune in early spring (March) by cutting all stems back to about 15-20 cm above ground. This encourages compact new growth and abundant flowering. Deadhead spent flower clusters in summer for a second flush.
