Spiraea japonica 'Little Princess'
Choose Little Princess Spirea for a tidy front-border mound with early-summer pink bloom. The tradeoff: it is not a privacy plant, and it looks best with sun, drainage, and a light trim after flowering.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B | It gives clean edging and a strong bloom period, but it is quieter after flowers fade. |
| Growth Rate | B | It fills in at a steady pace without becoming a fast, hard-to-control shrub. |
| Maintenance | B+ | A light post-bloom trim keeps the mound neat and reduces the tired look later in summer. |
| Deer Resistance | B+ | Deer tend to leave this alone, though hungry deer may sample it where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | A | Its compact mound works well along walks, steps, and small foundation beds. |
| Screening Value | D | It is too low and deciduous to provide meaningful privacy or winter cover. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Little Princess Spirea for sunny front beds where the goal is a neat, flowering edge, not screening or winter structure.

Very dedicated and professional. We are happy with the way they planted 14 trees for us. 11 green giants, 2 white pines and 1 Norway spruce.
Picked up my plants-ostrich ferns and blue ice amsonia without any problems! Wonderful, responsive owners! Will be buying from them in the future!
Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
