Spiraea japonica var. alpina, also known as the alpine spirea or daphne spirea, is a low-growing, rounded, deciduous shrub that has pink flowers in flat-topped clusters in late spring to mid summer. The leaves are small, oval, sharply toothed, and blue green-colored.
Spiraea japonica was introduced in North America as an ornamental landscape plant and first cultivated in the northeastern states around 1870. [5] Numerous cultivars have been selected for garden use. The tall forms may be grown as hedges, low screens, or foundation shrubs. The low-growing forms can be used as groundcover or in borders.
Spiraea plants are hardy, deciduous-leaved shrubs. The leaves are simple and usually short stalked, and are arranged in a spiralling, alternate fashion. In most species, the leaves are lanceolate (narrowly oval) and about 2.5 to 10 centimetres (0.98 to 3.94 in) long.

Spiraeoideae as defined before 2007 is paraphyletic, [1] leading some authors to define a broader subfamily which includes the Spiraeoideae as well as the Maleae (plants such as pears and apples whose fruits are pomes), and the Amygdaloideae (including almonds and plums, whose fruits are drupes).
Spiraea alba, commonly known as meadowsweet, [2] white meadowsweet, [3] narrowleaf meadowsweet, [4] pale bridewort, [5] or pipestem, [6] is native to the wet soils of the Allegheny Mountains and other portions of eastern North America, [7] but is currently endangered in the state of Missouri. It is naturalized in other parts of the world.
