Question
I’m in desperate need of two flamegold spireas to complete a hedge and can’t find them anywhere. Is flamegold spirea the same? Can I buy firegold spirea from this site?
Answer
Did you mean Goldflame Spirea? If so, Firegold® Spirea is a different species; it is a compact, mounded plant with pink flowers whereas Firegold® is a bridalwreath-type spirea with long arching branches with white flowers. If you’re looking for a replacement for Goldflame, we recommend Little Spark® Spirea, which has that great foliage and flower color on a compact plant, but retains that bright yellow leaf color all summer long and doesn’t bleach out or revert.
