How Do You Care For Them They do not need much attention; they only need to be watered during dry seasons and can be pruned once a year. The area around the stem should be mulched to conserve moisture and minimize weed growth, and removal of the faded flower promotes further flowering. Where is the best place to plant them? It needs full sun but can cope in partially shaded locations. It grows best in well-draining soil and is well-suited to borders, garden beds, or even low hedging. How long does it bloom? It is an early summer flowering shrub that can feature fuchsia flowers which last for between four to six weeks. It may bloom at any time, but with the right maintenance and deadheading, it may bloom during the summer. What is the best fertilizer for it? It prefers a balanced, slow-release fertilizer best provided through a 10-10-10 formulation. Use it at the beginning of spring to enhance the plant's health and flowering throughout the year. What Is The Lifespan Of Them  If grown correctly, Pink Spiralea may live for an average of 15-20 years or even longer. However, without proper pruning and fertilizing, it is likely to have a short life span and dull color.
