Double Play Doozie foliage emerges in blazing, deep red in early spring, late spring brings bright, glowing purple-red flowers, and it blooms all summer. It is non-invasive, meaning it sets no seed and won't spread. All the energy it would spend developing seed goes into blooming instead, so it reblooms through fall. It does it all with the same good looks, drought tolerance, and deer resistance that you expect from spirea, too.
- 2-3 feet tall and wide at maturity
- Grow in zones 3-8
- Plant in part to full sun (4+ hours daily)
Our deciduous shrubs are entering their natural dormancy phase. As part of this process, foliage is turning colors, drying out, and falling off—this is completely normal! Shedding leaves helps the plants conserve energy and prepare for the next growing season. Rest assured, your shrubs will wake up and thrive again when it's time in your growing zone. Dormancy is how they prepare for a healthy, vibrant comeback as the seasons change!
Care: Give it a light trim after its first bloom in late spring if you'd like to see a reflush of the bright red new growth. Remove the oldest, woodiest stems every couple of years or so to keep growth fresh and vigorous. Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring.
