Spiraea japonica 'Flaming Mound'
Spiraea japonica ‘Flaming Mound’, commonly known as Japanese spirea ‘Flaming Mound’, is a compact deciduous shrub with a rounded, dense habit, valued for its colorful foliage and sustained summer flowering. In spring, its young shoots emerge a brilliant coppery red, then develop into a luminous golden yellow in summer before turning orange-red in autumn. This succession of colors creates continuous ornamental interest from spring to autumn. In summer, it produces flat corymbs composed of small, deep pink flowers, which are melliferous and attractive to pollinators. Ideal for borders, rockeries, or low beds, Spiraea japonica ‘Flaming Mound’ prefers well-drained soil and a sunny exposure to maintain the intensity of its foliage and ensure abundant flowering.
