Noted for its wonderful foliage, Spiraea japonica 'Goldflame' (Japanese Spirea) is a compact deciduous shrub with bronze-red ovate leaves in spring, changing to yellow-green as the summer progresses. The luminous foliage turns brilliant shades of orange, red and yellow in the fall. In late spring to early summer, flat sprays of rose-pink flowers are on display. Perfect for contrasting and brightening the landscape, this spirea cultivar is a wonderful choice for borders and containers. Great as a low hedge too.
