It can take anything you throw at it

Conditions: Full sun to partial shade;moist,well- drained soil


If you have a large space to fill, false spirea is for you. This plant forma large masses
of arching branches. Billowy white spirea of flowers appear in mid- to late summer.
It is unbelievably durable and will take just about any soil. Occasionally cutting it back to the ground will help keep the plant under control.
