Double Play® Red (Spiraea japonica 'SMNSJMFR') is a compact, mounded deciduous shrub prized for its striking red new foliage and clusters of deep reddish-pink flowers in late spring and summer. As the season progresses, the foliage matures to a rich green, creating bold contrast against the blooms. This spirea is drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and thrives with minimal care, making it perfect for mass plantings, borders, or foundation beds. Its compact habit—typically 2 to 3 feet tall and wide—fits beautifully into smaller spaces while still making a statement.
