Double Play® Princess™ Spirea (Spiraea japonica) | Proven Winners® New Variety 2027

Double Play® Princess™ spirea delivers unmatched tidiness and bloom power. Its tight habit stays neat with minimal work, and nearly every stem is topped with dark pink flowers that give it a soft, rounded look. Trim it smaller for the front of the border or let it rise slightly in the middle—either way, it’s a standout choice for low-maintenance landscapes.
