| For me, the best of all worlds are spirea, smallish, easily maintained plants that grow anywhere, with pretty pink or white spring and summer flowers. |
| This is cheap and easy to do with specimens such as berberis, buddleia, cornus, kerria, philadelphus, spirea and willow. |
| Gambel oak, rock spirea, and waxflower are typical understory shrubs and slender wheatgrass, Canada bluegrass, and Parry oatgrass are common grasses in the MC zone. |
| Just at dawn, in a dew-drenched thicket of spirea, I found three nests not six feet apart. |
| They placed shrubs-roses, azaleas, altheas, forsythia, crepe myrtle, spirea, camellias, nandina, and wild honeysuckle-throughout the yard. |
| Spring-flowering shrubs include such popular plants as forsythia, deutzia, lilac, viburnum, mock-orange and spirea. |
