Ordering plants has concluded for the season. The selection on our website is what is overwintered at the nursery. Our Spring 2025 plant catalog will be available later this winter.

One of our native spiraeas, steeplebush is well suited to a wide range conditions typically found in the Northeast. Easily handles moist soils and can even handle periods of standing water. Spreads by suckers to form a 2-4' tall mound of stems which are topped by steeple-shaped pink flower clusters from mid-summer through early autumn. Host plant for the lovely Columbia silkmoth ( Hyalophora columbia). Great choice for naturalizing and rain gardens.
