Curly leaved spirea source?

Posted by sc_gardener zone 5 (My Page) on

I really like spireas, I bought the variety: Spiraea bumalda Crispa - or curly leaved spirea as it said on the tag many years ago. It is really nice looking, dependable shrub with a sophisticated frilly foliage, and I would like to purchase another.

I cannot find a source for it except forestfarm and they carry it in tube only - I would like something larger than a tube size.

The only spireas I can see to find in the stores that are similar are gold mound and anthony waterer (which I have both already) More places should stock this one.

Spiraea bumalda Crispa anyone? I can try rooting it, but I have never been very successful at this.
