Spiraea 'Golden Elf' (Spirea)
'Golden Elf' is a compact, ground cover-type spiraea that grows only 6-8” tall. Growth habit is similar to that of a phlox subulata. The rich golden foliage keeps its color and doesn’t burn in the summer heat (tested in Georgia for 3 years). Flowers are insignificant. 'Golden Elf' has many applications in the garden including as a ground cover, at the front of the border, in the rock garden, in containers and hanging baskets.
