These spiraea seeds form  a small bush which grows quite slowly to about 45 cm. It has pretty golden leaves, and dainty pink flowerheads borne in summer, with occasional flowers later in the season as well. It is a hardy plant withstanding heat and cold and is well worth growing for its easy care.

Sowing advice

These seeds require light for germination.  Sow on the surface of moist seed raising mix, and just sprinkle a very little mix over the top. Cover with a plastic sheet or glass to conserve moisture, and keep in a light place ( but not direct sun )  at about 20 deg C .  Keep the seeds moist (but not waterlogged) by using a misting sprayer or water from the bottom of the pot. Germination should occur in about 3 weeks. There are likely to be some plants with green leaves , but most will have golden leaves.
