Spiraea bumalda 'Goldmound' (Japanese Spirea 'Goldmound') is grown for its vivid foliage and easy, dependable performance in the landscape. You will love the fresh gold spring leaves that mature to green-gold, then shift to warm tones in fall, while flat-topped clusters of small pink flowers add color in the growing season.

Plant it in full sun for the strongest leaf color and best flowering, though it also performs well in part shade. Give it moist, well-drained soil, but once established it tolerates a wide range of garden soils. A 48-60 in. mature spread makes it useful for low hedges, foundation plantings, and mass plantings where you want a consistent, mounded form.

Because it flowers on new wood, you can prune in late winter to early spring to refresh the shape and encourage vigorous new growth. Deadheading spent blooms can help promote additional flowering and a neat appearance. It may self-seed and spread by suckering in favorable conditions, so site it where you can easily keep it within bounds.

This shrub is a solid choice for mixed borders and pollinator-friendly spaces: the blooms draw butterflies, and the plant is noted for deer resistance. Pair it with darker evergreens or purple-leaved companions to highlight the foliage color through the season.
