Summary[edit] Description: I'm not usually a great fan of Spirea - the spring flowering species are usually a bit dreary after they've finished flowering and often take up a lot of space for the rest of the summer. Thunbergii is an exception - although potentially quite large in time the summer foliage is very light and fresh. Mature plants absolutely cover themselves in tiny white flowers at this time of year.
