White spirea is a compact, deciduous shrub that produces clusters of delicate white flowers in late spring to early summer, attracting pollinators to the garden. It is adaptable to a range of soil types and light conditions, from full sun to partial shade, with average moisture requirements. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain a tidy shape and encourage healthy new growth the following season.
