Spiraea - Flaming Mound
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
