Flowering Deciduous Shrubs - Part 2
Some authors rather look down on the easy, work-horse shrubs as not being of sufficient interest year around to warrant a place in the "proper" garden. However, my personal opinion is that, having the space, one should not ignore plants who are tough, tolerant, easy to grow and provide lovely flowers in season. Spirea are among these easy shrubs for sun or shade. There are lots of pix, so please be patient while the page loads for you.
