Growing & Maintenance Tips for Spiraea betulifolia 'Tor'

Spring flowering spiraea will flower with a good flush in early spring, and sporadically during the summer. To promote a second flush of bloom, remove spent flowers by pinching or light shearing. Any pruning for shape should be done in late winter to allow the flower buds to form.
