Double Play Doozie® Spirea

This non-invasive selection provides all of the utility of other spirea, but without the unwanted seedlings – plus flowers all season long! Its lack of seed also makes it a perpetual bloomer, putting all of its energy into creating wave after wave of red-pink flowers from early summer through frost. No deadheading required! Naturally grows as a neat mound.
