Zone: 4SNOWMOUND SPIREA
Spiraea nipponica 'Snowmound' is commonly referred to as Snowmound Spirea. It is a dwarf, slightly arching, deciduous flowering shrub with an abundance of pure white flowers in May that attract butterflies. This rapidly growing Spirea can reach 3-4 feet in height with an equal spread and becomes more dense and mounding with age. It blooms on new wood so pruning should be in late winter or early spring, as needed.
Snowmound Spirea is easy to grow and thrives in full sun in rich, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It is ideal for borders, hedges and foundation plantings.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in full sun to partial shade, as full sun is preferred for best flowering and foliage color, in well-draining soil. Water regularly until established; once mature, this variety is relatively drought-tolerant. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize annually with a balanced fertilizer in early spring. Prune sparingly and only immediately after flowering to maintain shape; avoid pruning in late winter or early spring, as this will remove the following season's flower buds.
