Today we’re talking about one of our favorite Spring elements, Spirea. We always get excited the first time we spot it in the market because it’s kind of the perfect touch to any arrangement. It’s a thin cascading branch that has delicate white flowers growing from it, so using it as a greenery is much more exciting than your typical winter choices.

Spirea is among the easiest shrubs to grow, so if you’re planting your garden right now this will make a great addition.  For more tips about planting this shrub click here.
