Space plants 2 to 3 feet apart in well-draining soil, and water regularly during the first growing season to establish strong roots. Once established, this spiraea demonstrates excellent drought resilience, though consistent moisture encourages optimal performance. Prune lightly after spring flowering if desired to refresh growth and remove spent blooms. Apply a 2- to 3-inch mulch layer at planting, and fertilize minimally—a single application of granular rose fertilizer in early spring is sufficient for most growing conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"1 Quart","offer_id":45814271279290,"sku":"21268","price":50.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/proven-winners-double-play-candy-corn-spiraea.jpg?v=1777509806","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/proven-winners-double-play-candy-corn-spiraea","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
