Spiraea japonica ‘Double Play Big Bang’
Spiraea japonica ‘Double Play Big Bang’ is a spectacular shrub, ideal for structuring flowerbeds, borders, or isolated plantings, thanks to its unique combination of evolving foliage and abundant flowering. Its foliage emerges bright orange in spring, turns golden yellow in summer, then takes on reddish hues in autumn, offering prolonged visual interest. From late spring, large, vibrant pink inflorescences emerge, attracting butterflies, hummingbirds, and other pollinators, while contrasting beautifully with the bright foliage. Easy to grow and deer-resistant, this deciduous shrub with a rounded habit has a medium growth rate and adapts to a variety of well-drained soils, in full sun to partial shade. It is perfectly hardy down to -40 °C, making it suitable for northern climates.
