(Spirea) Three seasons of color? What a treat! The DOUBLE PLAY® series of Spirea are bred for beautiful flowers as well as foliage. DOUBLE PLAY® CANDY CORN® does just that! Standing 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 foot tall, CANDY CORN® goes through seasonal color transformation. In spring the scarlet red foliage emerges, as the spring goes on the older foliage fades to a bright yellow color, but while all this is going on the new growth brings in an orangy-red color for additional interest. In addition to all this great foliage color, DOUBLE PLAY® CANDY CORN® blooms early summer with deep pinkish purple flowers. Watch out! You may even see a hummingbird or butterfly fluttering around. If deer are a problem in your garden, no worries, DOUBLE PLAY® CANDY CORN® is a deer resistant shrub. Hardy in zones 4-9, Spirea is a very versatile planted in a full sun to part shade location and makes a great border or foundation planting. DOUBLE PLAY® CANDY CORN® Spirea is a PROVEN WINNERS® COLORCHOICE® Flowering Shrub. - More Info
