Double Play Doozie® has foliage that emerges in blazing, deep red and lime green in early spring before it matures to dark green through the season. Late spring brings bright, glowing red-pink 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.
