Spiraea 'Arguta'
bridal wreath
Gorgeous arching sprays of white flowers in mid and late spring and toothed, bright green leaves. This popular, deciduous shrub is ideal for a sunny, well-drained shrub or mixed border. Relatively vigorous and easy to grow, to guarantee an abundant, foam-like display it must be pruned annually immediately after flowering. 'Arguta' will make an excellent, loose, lightly clipped, flowering hedge if planted en masse, perfect for a soft backdrop to foreground plantings.
