Double Play™ Big Bang Spirea

The Double Play® Big Bang® Spirea is a bright addition to any garden, bringing vibrant spring colors of orange, red and yellow, followed by the biggest flower heads of any Japanese spirea, packed with bright-pink blossoms. These keep coming from late spring all through summer, and the new growth continues to be colorful. Less than 3 feet tall, this tough shrub is ideal for edging large beds, planting in drifts or singly in smaller beds, on slopes and among rocks, and in planters as well.

• Vibrant new leaves are orange-red turning bright yellow
• New summer growth is orange turning chartreuse
• Very large heads of bright pink flowers from late spring through summer
• Neat mounded form is useful anywhere in the garden
• Tough, reliable and great in the coldest areas

Planting in full sun is best place for the Double Play® Big Bang® Spirea, but it will take a couple of hours of shade each day without any problem. It grows in all soils, as long as they are well-drained, including poor urban soils, clay, and rocky ground. Tough and resistant to ordinary summer drought, you won’t see significant pests or diseases on this bush, and deer normally won’t don’t touch it.
