Description
Spiraea ‘Firelight’ is a very hardy, deciduous shrub with a bushy habit. The new young leaves emerge a bronze-red colour in spring, which mature to yellow-lime green during the summer, before going back to a deeper reddish-purple in the autumn. Clusters of pink flowers are produced in the summer. It grows well in most soil types, but needs a full sun to dappled shade position. It won’t tolerate very wet areas. Max height and spread is approximately 1.2-1.5m over 10 years.
