How to care for Spiraea japonica Anthony Waterer:
Deadhead after flowering. In early spring, hard prune the flowered stems to a permanent framework 10-15cm (4-6in) above the ground.
Please note:
This shrub is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
