More about Ruby Spice Clethra...Noteworthy Characteristics
'Ruby Spice' is the darkest pink (almost red) of all of the Summersweet / Sweet Pepperbush varieties. In summer, the wonderfully sweet fragrance of the rosy, bottlebrush-like blooms are irresistible to hummingbirds, butterflies, and other pollinating insects. The color show continues in fall when the handsome green foliage ignites into flaming shades of yellow! The shrub seldom exceeds 4 to 6 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide. An easy-to-grow, multiseason shrub you will not regret planting!
Uses
Ruby Spice is most useful in sunny landscape beds that have moisture retentive soil. It can also be useful near windows in foundation plantings or around outdoor living areas where the fragrance can be enjoyed. Make sure to plant this one in your butterfly and hummingbird gardens.

Happy with purchase of Ruby Spice
by Joanne - Duluth, Minnesota
I had been looking in my area for another ruby spice & couldn't get one. I came across your website and was happy to get one. It came well packed in its container and I was surprised of the size and full of buds. Can't wait to see it bloom, thanks.
