Spiraea japonica 'Fire Light'
Spiraea japonica ‘Fire Light’, commonly known as Japanese Spiraea ‘Fire Light’, is a compact deciduous shrub with a rounded, dense habit, renowned for its flamboyant foliage and sustained summer flowering. In spring, its young shoots emerge bright orange-red, then turn a luminous golden yellow in summer before taking on a coppery red hue in autumn. This dynamic palette provides continuous ornamental interest from spring until the first frosts. In summer, it produces flat corymbs composed of small, deep pink flowers, which are melliferous and attractive to pollinators. Ideal for borders, low beds, or rockeries, Spiraea japonica ‘Fire Light’ prefers well-drained soil and a sunny exposure to maintain the intensity of its foliage and ensure abundant flowering.
