Fall is the best planting time, as it is for most shrubs. Spireas are also easy to dig and transplant to new sites, and late fall after leaf drop is the best time for moving these shrubs. These shrubs grow best, more dense, and produce more blooms in full sun.
How do you plant spirea bushes?
PLANTING & CARING FOR SPIREA
Look to your plant's tag for specific recommendations. Dig a hole slightly deeper than the root ball and 2 times wider. Remove the plant from the nursery pot and loosen the soil around the roots. Set the plant in the hole with the top of the root ball at or slightly above soil level.
Where is the best place to plant a spirea?
The spirea shrub does best when planted in full sun or light shade. Planting the shrub in full shade results in stunted growth, and a reduction in the number and size of blooms. Position your spirea in an area with well-drained soil, as they do not like wet feet.
