Her inspiration comes by way of a delightful metaphor—she catches balls of light before she falls asleep, dreams of adorable and unearthly creatures and landscapes, and then draws them when she wakes up. These dreamscapes continue in Sandy’s waking hours, though, interfering with more “important” things in life. Look for part 2, Hicotea. Show less

Reviews for "Showstopping Spiraea Magic Carpet Combinations for Your Garden"

1. Sarah - 2 stars

I was really disappointed with the Spiraea magic carpet. I had read so many great reviews about it, but it just didn't live up to the hype for me. The foliage wasn't as colorful as I expected, and the plant didn't grow as vigorously as I had hoped. I also found it to be quite finicky, requiring a lot of maintenance and constant pruning. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this plant if you're looking for a low-maintenance option for your garden.

2. James - 1 star

I regret purchasing the Spiraea magic carpet for my garden. It quickly became infested with pests, and despite my best efforts, I couldn't get rid of them. The plant also had a weak structure, and many of the branches started breaking under their own weight. The foliage also lost its vibrant color after just a few weeks. I was extremely disappointed with the overall quality and performance of this plant, and I would not buy it again.

3. Emily - 2 stars

I had high hopes for the Spiraea magic carpet, but it didn't live up to my expectations. While the foliage initially had a nice red color, it quickly faded to a dull green. The plant also required a lot of watering and maintenance to keep it looking decent. Additionally, I found that it needed to be pruned constantly to maintain its shape, which was a hassle. Overall, I was underwhelmed with this plant and wouldn't recommend it to others.

4. Mark - 1 star

The Spiraea magic carpet was a complete disappointment. The foliage didn't have the vibrant colors that were advertised, and the plant had a weak growth habit. Despite following all the care instructions, the plant didn't thrive and started to decline within a few months. I would not recommend wasting your time and money on this plant, as there are much better options available for your garden.
