Spiraea Cantoniensis Double White - 14cm

Spiraea cantoniensis Double White is a deciduous flowering shrub known for masses of small double white flowers carried along arching branches in spring. The bloom display gives it a soft, traditional character that suits cottage gardens, mixed shrub borders and informal flowering hedges. After flowering, the green foliage provides a simple backdrop to later-season perennials and shrubs. The naturally arching habit is part of its appeal, so it is usually best pruned selectively rather than clipped into a rigid shape. It is a useful choice where a strong spring display is wanted from a manageable shrub.
