Colourful bush
Would you like a hedge full of butterflies? Then we recommend the Japanese meadowsweet 'Anthony Waterer' (Spiraea japonica). It attracts bees and butterflies! And we understand why! The pink flower groves are a festive picture. The flowers bloom in the summer. The plant is winter-hardy. We can enjoy the colourful spiraea again next year!
If necessary, cut branches off at the base in spring. Position the plant in a place with plenty of sunlight. Always keep the soil slightly moist. The spiraea prefers well-drained soil.
