Spiraea thunbergii ‘Mt. Fuji’ – ​Thunberg Spirea has elliptic willowy leaves some of which are touched with creamy white variegations giving the shrub a very soft and delicate appearance. But the gentle appearance belies its tough disposition. This lovely shrub is adorned in very early spring with white or very pale pink flowers up and down the branches before the foliage sprouts. The arching branches carry clean and beautiful foliage throughout the spring and summer whereupon it turns gold and orange lasting for a long time in fall – until the end of November here in northeastern Connecticut. Site ‘Mt. Fuji’ in open shade to full sun planted in any decent garden soil.
