I love Spirea Olive.....I have a white flowering one that came with us from the Isle of Wight...it must be fourteen years old now, and the flowers on it this spring were in abundance, and after flowering the new growth is about a couple of feet in height...and the same in girth....Going to trim it into a nice shape, without taking the growth away too much, as its near the fence line, and looks good....I also planted a new one this year, a rose colour, and it's doing very well.....also....

Yes, my darker pink one is just coming out, I like that the best, I have a white one, but for some reason it has pink bits in it also, maybe too close to the pink one and they have crossed over. The trouble with the spirea is that they soon go to seed when it is as hot as this, well mine do anyway. keeping fingers crossed supposed to rain Monday.
