About the Spiraea - Snowmound :
The Snowmound Spirea, Spiraea nipponica, is an excellent
dwarf shrub, with dense dark green foliage and masses of
pure white flowers in May. Great for use as a foundation
plant, in the shrub border or in a garden situation.
Prune in the early spring before growth starts if shaping
is needed and then again after the flowers are done
blooming. This deciduous shrub prefers full sun to partial
shade. It does best in well-drained soil with moderate to
high levels of moisture. Prune older stems to the ground to
thin and rejuvenate.
