Bridal Wreath Spirea (Spiraea × vanhouttei) is one of the most iconic flowering shrubs in the landscape world — known for its massive spring display of arching white blooms that completely cover the plant from top to bottom. This old-fashioned classic has stood the test of time because it’s tough, reliable, fast-growing, and incredibly showy in any yard.

Our 1-gallon Bridal Wreath Spireas are nursery-grown, healthy, well-rooted plants suitable for residential landscapes, commercial plantings, or large hedges. This variety is extremely versatile — use it as a foundation shrub, flowering hedge, border accent, or as a feature shrub in cottage, traditional, or rural landscapes.

📦 Shipping & Winter Dormancy Notice

Your plant will ship in a 1-gallon nursery pot.

During fall and winter months, Bridal Wreath Spirea naturally goes dormant.

This means:

• It may ship without leaves, or with leaves turning yellow/red before dropping.

• This is completely normal dormancy, not a health issue.

• Plants will leaf out again in spring when temperatures warm.

We ship healthy, well-rooted live plants that are ready to establish quickly once planted.

⸻

💚 Perfect For:

• Front-yard foundation plantings

• Flowering hedges

• Long driveway borders

• Cottage gardens and traditional landscapes

• Mass plantings

• Pollinator-friendly landscapes

Bridal Wreath Spirea is a classic for a reason — it never disappoints.

All sizes given are approximate and can vary between individual plants depending on growth stage and season.
