What's in the game?
Steeplebush, the botanical name either Spirea douglasii or Spirea Tomentosa is a large shrub that tolerates a wide range of conditions. This deciduous plant is very easy to grow and maintain and a number of cultivars have been developed. StuePlebush, originally from most of the US and Canada, was naturalized worldwide. It is a popular garden plant, especially for those who want to attract and encourage wild animals. This plant prefers full sun and humid soil, but can grow under almost any conditions. It tolerates all types of soil and a wide pH range of 6.1 to 7.8. The only point of view is that they must have damp soil to remain healthy; This is particularly important for younger plants. Once this species is mature, this species can tolerate a period of drought, but the production of flowers decreases or stops or stops during very dry condition. If the plant is exposed to a longer period of drought, the growth rate will slow down and suffer from poor general health, thus opening the plant and damageinsects.
This perennial shrub can be grown in exposed areas because it does not suffer from wind damage and weather. A number of different cultivars have been developed, which are tolerant of an even wider range of conditions and provide other diseases and pests. These cultivars also provide the gardener with a wider range of colors, from paste pink to purple. Hoishes produce long upright stems full of small, tightly grouped flowers. After flowering there will be a small fruit that has browned as they mature.
This plant is easily grown from seeds and for a novice gardener. The tower may have died for the last time to control growth and spread. With this kind of rapid growth rate, it recovers rapidly; The following spring will produce masses of healthy new stems and leaves.
dense clusters on the base of plants provide shelter and humid, shady environment for small animals such as frogs, lizards, mice and voLy. The flowers also attract a wide range of butterflies and other insects. As a result, Steeplebush is useful as an accompanying plant in a vegetable garden because it attracts bees that pollute other plants. While normally attacks vulnerable plant plants such as cabbage, kale and broccoli, butterflies tend to lay eggs and instead feed on the tower.
