Maintenance Notes: 

Spirea does not require regular pruning, but can be trimmed after flowering to encourage a fresh flush of colorful new growth. Though it should be watered regularly its first season, once it is established, spirea tolerates dry conditions quite well.

Like most variegated plants, occasional reversions to the original green form may occur. These should be pruned out as needed.

Fun Facts:
