Spirea x bumalda 'Goldflame'

Goldflame Spirea

Goldflame Spirea (Spiraea japonica ‘Goldflame’) has bright golden foliage with red tones in the new growth. Deep pink flower clusters add another layer of color from late spring into early summer.

Its compact, mounded habit suits low borders and grouped plantings. The changing leaf color remains useful after flowering, particularly beside plants with plain green or darker foliage.

Grow in sun or partial shade, allowing room for the shrub to reach its full width. Water during establishment.
