Starting a thread for this Spiraea Nipponica Snowmound. Purchased from my local garden centre. The trunk drew me in - usually any Spiraea I come across are just a bunch of stems/small trunks. Think this one has some decent girth and not a bad start to main branches. Pictures as purchased:
Had a quick dig for the nebari but that trunk seems to go quite far down and didn't want to break too many of those fine roots so I've covered back up. As you can see here there's a lot of larger roots mid way up the trunk:
So I've removed I think three branches that were crossing and some of the dead twigs. Photos after a little clean up:
So repot won't be until next Spring. For now I'm wondering whether to reduce/shorten branches or to leave be?
Oh also here's some of the flowers
Cheers for looking and in advance of any wisdom @Hartinez I'd love your input if you get chance please - seen you've got a lovely one!
