Do this in the late winter prior to active growth. The foliage turns a lovely yellow in the fall and the cut branches and flowers are good bouquet additions. This plant is both a pollinator powerhouse and a larval host (more specific information coming soon). Most sources say deer and rabbit resistant. Great in a mixed hedge with other moisture loving species. Provides nesting habitat, erosion control, and grouse enjoy eating the buds. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSource:\u003c\/strong\u003e New England Wetland Plants or sown at Honey Petal Plants with seed from both Toadshade Wildflower Farm and Prairie Moon Nursery\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImage credits: \u003c\/strong\u003eWikimedia Commons\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Honey Petal Plants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52730337624371,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0910\/6115\/8195\/files\/512px-White_meadowsweet__54701828168.jpg?v=1765195885","url":"https:\/\/honeypetalplants.com\/products\/spiraea-alba-var-latifolia-white-meadowsweet","provider":"Honey Petal Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
