watering
Japanese spirea, also known as Spiraea japonica 'Walbuma' MAGIC CARPET, should be watered regularly. During the growing season (March to October), water thoroughly about once a week, unless it rains. Otherwise, water deeply every 2 or 3 weeks. In the winter (November to February) when the plant is dormant, reduce the watering frequency to about once a month, to prevent the roots from sitting in too much water. Ensure that its soil is kept moist and not allowed to dry out for extended periods of time.
sunlight
Japanese Spirea (Spiraea japonica 'Walbuma' Magic Carpet) thrives in full sun to partial shade. For optimal growth and flowering, provide 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day. It is best to position the plant in a location that will receive sunlight in the morning or late afternoon, as this will help reduce the potential for sunburn on the foliage. It is important to shield the foliage from the direct rays of the sun during the hottest part of the day to maintain optimal growth and health.
pruning
Pruning Japanese spirea (Spiraea japonica "Walbuma" MAGIC CARPET) should be done twice a year. Late winter to early spring pruning should focus on the removal of dead, damaged, and crossing branches. Any horizontal branches should be removed to promote the development of upright branches. Summertime pruning can be used to maintain desired shape and size or for thinning. Remove any dead, damaged, or diseased branches and lighten any crowded portions of the plant by removing the oldest branches.
