Ash Leaf Spirea

Spireas are among the easiest flowering shrubs to grow since they are tolerant of many soils, except extremely wet. Ash Leaf Spirea, 'Sorbaria sorbifolia', is a fast growing plant that has large plumes of creamy white flowers in June. It prefers a moist, well-drained, organic soil. It spreads quickly and is an excellent plant for soil retention. Spireas are great for mass plantings or groupings, screens or border shrubs. These grow atop the deep green, fern-like foliage. This deciduous shrub is multi-stemmed and grows 6-8 feet tall and 5-10 feet wide. The plant also likes mulch and summer watering and prefers full sun to partial shade. ... more info
