Spirea for Texas Landscapes

Spirea in North Texas

I truly love this hardy little plant, it typically starts off in a small quart container, but will grow and ramble and fill in a pretty large area if you allow it. I try to describe it to folks when we are helping them sell their homes, but they never truly see its beauty until the end of a…
