Still Planting! Heucherella, False Spiraea & Hibiscus 🌿🙌🌺

Fresh Spirea = the perfect midweek pick me up Item number - 12909 White Snowmound variety from Oregon, 30-36” tall @cfgreens . . #spirea #greens #flowers | DVFlora

Do you grow spirea in your garden? You may have seen the beautiful white spires around Alabama as this shrub has been setting out for spring! In this video, we are looking at two different varieties. Spirea “popcorn” or “bridal wreath” is already covered in white blooms, but no leaves! Spirea “Reeves” has tiny green leaves, but it’s not quite ready to open its flower clusters! Both of these shrubs are perfect for a southern garden, and are absolute showstoppers this time of year! #spirea #reeves
