Golden Princess Spirea is a dwarf upright deciduous shrub with oval sharp-toothed foliage that emerges bronze-yellow and matures gold before earning red and bronze tones in fall. Flat-topped clusters of soft pink flowers cover the plant in later spring to summer. Grows best in full sun and well-drained soils.
