Spiraea japonica MERLO® Gold 'DAVCOP04'
A young bright red foliage, golden-yellow in summer, with an intense growth of dark pink flowers
In spring, the foliage of Merlo® Gold has a remarkable intensity, mixing young firey-red shoots and small lemon-yellow leaves. In summer the foliage remains yellow. It has a naturally round and regular habit. In June Merlo® Gold is covered with a multitude of small dark red flowers. Removing the first faded corymbs will encourage a second flowering. Resistant to powdery mildew, this new spirea will mix wonderfully in beds with other shrubs or colourfully-leaved perennials.
