All About Pruning Spirea + Looking at What’s Currently in Beautiful Bloom in my Gardens // Zone 8b

Today, I’m taking advantage of our cool early-July weather and a deadheading/pruning all of my Spirea shrubs. This is ideal because I don’t want them to set seed, I don’t love the look of the spent flower clusters, this promotes new growth, and can reshape the shrub! All good things! And to be able to do this pruning while the weather is so cool and with rain on the forecast is such a gift. We’re also doing a bit of other garden maintenance. Plus, while we move through the gardens we’re looking at what is currently blooming… always a must when spending time gardening. #pnwgardening #pruning #spirea #shrubs #pruningshrubs #zone8b #gardenvlog #mygarden #inthegarden #oregongarden #rusticgarden #gardentips #howtogarden #gardenmaintenance
