Japanese spirea are extremely common shrubs found in most landscapes in North America and are the perfect plant for amateur gardeners and those new to the world of landscaping/gardening. They are tremendously rugged; they can be mowed, sheared, butchered, and still come back as if nothing had happened. Most come in varying shades of green or yellow foliage and fall colors vary from reds to yellows. All cultivars get pink or white, flat-topped blooms that seem to flower for months and are great for attracting pollinators and butterflies. Spirea are very hardy and thrive on neglect; only really needing full sun in any growing condition. 'Gold Mound' was introduced for its rosy pink flowers and changing foliage color. New growth in spring is golden yellow, then fades to a chartreuse for summer, and then to shades of orange, red, and yellow in the fall.
