Spiraea chamaedryfolia is a shrub reaching a height of 1–1.5 metres (3 ft 3 in – 4 ft 11 in). Branchlets are brownish or red-brown. Leaves are simple, oblong or lance-shaped, toothed on the edges, 40–60 millimetres (1.6–2.4 in) long and 10–30 millimetres (0.39–1.18 in) wide, with a petiole of 4–7 mm.
Holodiscus dumosus is a deciduous spreading shrub, which grows from .5–6 meters (1 + 1 ⁄ 2 – 19 + 1 ⁄ 2 feet) in height and 1.5–3 m (5–10 ft) in width. [3] The stems intricately branch from the root crown and spread outward.

Its white fruits and blue-green foliage made it popular as an ornamental plant [4] planted around old houses of the 1890s through the 1920s like with the Vanhoutte Spirea or Bridalwreath. It is still sold by some large diverse conventional nurseries and native plant nurseries, and occasionally found in modern landscapes.
