Spiraea 'Magic Carpet' Pink is a true color-shifter for the garden, this compact, mounding shrub is prized for its dramatic foliage and vibrant blooms. It begins the spring with ru sset-orange shoots that mature into bright gold leaves, providing a stunning backdrop for the clusters of deep neon-pink flowers that emerge in early summer. Tough, low-maintenance, and deer-resistant, it’s the perfect "set it and forget it" plant for adding year-round brightness to borders and walkways. Foliage: Multi-colored; transitions from orange-bronze to gold to red. Flowers: Dense clusters of vibrant neon-pink blossoms in early to mid-summer. Growth: Compact and mounding; typically 1.5–2' tall and 2–3' wide. Light: Full sun is essential for the brightest gold foliage and most prolific pink blooms. Water: Average water needs; once established, it is quite drought-tolerant. Soil: Adaptable to most soil types; prefers well-drained conditions. Hardiness: Very hardy; USDA Zones 3–8. Pro Tip: Deadhead (remove) spent pink flowers to encourage a potential second flush of blooms and keep the golden foliage looking tidy. Show more
