Spiraea
at Digging Dog
Including Spiraea betulifolia 'Tor' and Spiraea thunbergii 'Ogon'
Spiraea
With attractive foliage and a graceful habit, these hardy, deciduous flowering shrubs belong to the Rose family, and are easily grown in any fertile, somewhat moisture-retentive garden soil.
Birchleaf SpireaUnique among other Spireas for its small oval Birch-like leaves, ‘Tor’s tightset orderly mounds make a reflective deep green foil for clustered purplish buds and a profusion of sprightly snow white blooms that charm butterflies. Autumn brings additional enticements when the refined foliage premieres orange, red and purple colors.
Employed as a mixed border or rockery specimen, or planted en masse along pathways and foundations, this compact deciduous shrub fancies sunshine and periodic pruning. It combines well with silver dappled Pulmonarias or Carex testacea, which provide compelling foliar contrast. Zone 3/4.
Blooms May – June. Size: 2'–3' high x 2'–3' wide; hardy to zone 4. Spiraea betulifolia ‘Tor’ (S-0753)
Each $8.00

Among the first shrubs to bloom, ‘Ogon’s pretty white five-petaled flowers are arranged in abundant clusters along its wiry bare branches. Later, small and slender Willow-like foliage attires the numerous dark twigs. Illuminated in golden shades, this fine textured Japanese selection conveys a bright, wispy visage in the midst of blue flowering Geranium ‘Nimbus’, Berberis ‘Golden Ring’ and Euphorbias.
Blooms March–April. Size: 4' high x 4' wide; hardy to zone 5. AVAILABLE JULY 2013 Spiraea thunbergii ‘Ogon’ (S-0572)
Each $8.00
