Whether you are a fan of the old-fashioned fall treat known as candy corn or not, we’re sure this is something we can all get behind! When Double Play® Candy Corn® Spirea (Double Play Candy Corn Spiraea japonica 'NCSX1' USPP 28,313) was shown in test gardens, here are a few of the comments people gave this sterile triploid cultivar over and over again:

"Eye-popping!"

"Crazy colorful!"

"You have to see it to believe it!"

And we agree with them all. This is a crazy colorful, eye-popping Spirea that you simply have to see to believe!

In the spring the foliage starts out a candy apple red. Then it turns to pineapple yellow as the season wears on, while all the while - new growth continues to come out in rich orange color. On top of that, the flowers bust out in early summer and are wonderful little clusters of tiny blooms the shade of dark rosy pinkish-purple. Just wait until you see what this little powerhouse has in store for you in the fall! Lots of action and color on one plant!

#ProPlantTips for Care:

New and improved Japanese Spirea love full sun and partial shade, appreciating afternoon shade in the hottest of its favored hardiness zones. Any well-drained, moderately moist location in the landscape suits these just fine! Besides their obvious beauty, they are drought tolerant, and deer and rabbits don't touch them. Plus, they rarely require any pruning! Just a clean shearing or deadheading after their first flush of blossoms to tidy up the mound and encourage a rebloom later in the growing season.

  • Full Sun & Partial Shade
  • Moderate Moisture & Well-Drained Soil - Low Water Needs Once Established
  • Adaptable & Easy Care!
  • Low-Growing - No Pruning Required
