Etymology

The word 'spiraea' originates from Latin, specifically from 'spiraea', which refers to a type of flowering shrub. This Latin term is derived from the Greek word 'spiraia', which also indicated a type of plant. The genus was scientifically described in the mid-18th century, primarily by botanists who aimed to classify the various flowering plants that belong to the Rosaceae family. Over time, spiraea gained popularity in horticulture due to their hardiness and beauty. Today, there are many cultivated varieties of spiraea prized for their ornamental value in landscapes around the world.
