Why Plant Rainbow Fizz™ Spirea?
Delight your landscape with the radiant color show that is the Rainbow Fizz™ Spirea! Bringing on an array of colors throughout the seasons, this compact shrub is sure to fit perfectly wherever you have an open space in your landscape. Bronzy red foliage arrives in early spring, transforming into a sunny gold for the duration of summer. Along with summer comes an incredible array of flowers that cluster into shades of pink. Fall will bring that beautiful bronzy red back to the shrub where it will stick around until the first frost of the season. Don't be surprised if you see a variety of insects flying above this gorgeous shrub, as the fizzy flowers are uber attractive! Providing nutrients through its sweet nectar, you'll see butterflies, bees, and even songbirds!
Spirea varieties are common within the U.S. and have been cultivated due to their dynamic color variations and the low-maintenance that they require! The Rainbow Fizz™ fits right in as it has been sought after by pollinator gardeners for years!
How to use Rainbow Fizz™ Spirea in the landscape?
As a low growing, easy to maintain shrub, the Rainbow Fizz™ Spirea can be planted almost anywhere you desire! Plant around a flagpole in a sunny location, or add this to your smaller garden space as an accent to surrounding greenery!

How To Plant Rainbow Fizz™ Spirea
This easy to grow spirea can handle just about anything you throw at it other than shade or wet soil. Don't be concerned about pruning, in fact some people periodically cut theirs to the ground to rejuvenate the plant.
How To Water
After planting your Rainbow Fizz™ you should water very thoroughly and keep an eye for the following weeks. You'll want to give a good soaking once a week during the summer unless you can rely on rainfall. Once your Spirea is established you can generally lessen your watering amount.
How To Fertilize
Established Spirea's prefer when a light fertilizer is used. Our Elements Starter Plant Food is perfect for this type of plant! Sprinkle some of our granular plant food after planting and you won't have to again till next year!
How To Prune
Prune or shear your spirea in late winter or early spring as the new growth starts to emerge. A light shearing after the first wave of flowers will encourage more flowers.
How Does Shipping Work?
Bower & Branch Trees, the real BIG trees, don’t fit in a box! Our big trees, sizes XL and bigger, require expert delivery and care, that means our extra-large trees are shipped on Bower & Branch trucks. We are the only ones who know how to ship our big and bigger trees and plants with tender loving care. We deliver your trees and plants directly to you.

*For Big trees and Shrubs, Size XL and bigger: Review our Seasonal Shipping Timelines and Policy here.
Your trees and plants are grown across the United States at various Bower & Branch Growers. Depending on your location, your plant orders may be shipped from various locations. Please expect orders with multiple items to be delivered over a number of days as a result. Orders made up of numerous items or selections will not arrive at your home on the same day.
Shipping Delays:
From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health. Weather in your region, as well as, where your plants are grown, is always considered when shipping. Extreme weather conditions may delay some or all of your order. Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.
How Does Sizing Work?
The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)
Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.
All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
