Snowmound Spirea is a fast-growing deciduous shrub with a mounded habit and gracefully spreading branches.  Its oval dark blue-green foliage emerges bright green and turns golden yellow in fall.  Flat-topped clusters of clear white flowers cover the plant in later spring to summer.  Grows best with partial sun in the South and well-drained soils.
