Spiraea - Flaming Mound
The Flaming Mound Spiraea, Spiraea japonica 'Flaming Mound', is a medium compact bushy plant with foliage that emerges flaming red.  It then ages to a golden yellow. In summer, showy, deep pink flowers are borne on upright, rounded corymbs to 4 inches in diameter.  The small, showy, long lasting flowers are a stunning contrast against the bright foliage. 'Flaming Mound' will re-bloom if deadheaded, and it has excellent coppery-orange-red fall color. Preferring full sun and well drained soil, this spirea is fast growing and good for filling a space in a shrub border. It is recommended that it will benefit from severe spring pruning every couple of years.  For a neater look and better secondary bloom, remove old blossom heads in June. * Fast growing * Foliage color * Low maintenance

Clusters of white to pinkish flowers appear in spring. Flowers are followed by abundant glossy red fruits (3/8 diameter) which appear in dense clusters along the branches. Fruits ripen in late summer and persist throughout fall and well into winter. The glossy, dark green turns bright red in autumn. 'Brilliantissima' primarily differs from the species by being more compact, producing more lustrous foliage with superior red fall color and producing larger, glossier and more abundant fruit. Common name is in reference to the tart and bitter berries. which are so astringent they cause choking in those who try to eat them. The ability to withstand wet conditions makes it suitable for growing on the margins of ponds or streams. Also effective in naturalized areas where its suckering, colonial growth habit does not need to be restrained. Easily grown in average, medium wet, well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. It has a wide range of soil tolerance including boggy soils. Best fruit production usually occurs in full sun. Zones 4-9
