'Double Play Candy Corn' is a deciduous shrub that forms tidy mounds of pineapple yellow foliage with new growth that emerges bright red. In June, clusters of purple flowers emerge. If you thought Spirea 'Walbuma' is striking, 'Double Play Candy Corn' is an eye-popping shot of color in the perennial garden. It seems to sell out quickly everywhere. Pairs well with blue or dark green foliage plants.
