Spiraea cantoniensis
Common Name: White May
A truly spectacular sight in Spring! Spiraea form large arching semi evergreen shrubs that are absolutely smothered clusters of tiny white flowers during spring. I give mine a light prune all over once flowering has finished to help keep them compact. I have them both in full sun and part shade and while the ones in full sun have more flowers, they still flower well in part shade.
