Spiraea thunbergii, Sieb. Fig. 3660. Shrub, 5 ft. high, with spreading or arching branches: lvs. linear-lanceolate, sharply serrulate, 1-1 3/4 in. long: fls. pure white, about 1/3 in. across, in 3-5-fld. naked umbels; petals obovate, much longer than stamens: follicles with the spreading styles below the apex. April, May. China, Japan. S.Z.1:69. G.F. 8:84, 85. J.H. III.47:337 — A very graceful early-flowering shrub, the slender arching branches clothed with feathery bright green foliage, turning late in fall to orange or scarlet. Almost hardy, but tips of branches sometimes killed by severe frost; valuable for seaside planting.

+'''''Spiraea thunbergii''''' ('''Thunberg's meadowsweet''') is a [[plant]] in the rose family, [[Rosaceae]].

-| common_names =     <!--- if multiple, list all, if none, leave blank -->
+''Spiraea thunbergii'' (common names : baby's breath spirea, Thunberg spirea; Japanese common name : yuki-yanagi) is a small, long-lived [[shrub]] with thin, flexible stems. It is native to Japan and China. It is also a popular landscape shrub in southeastern U.S.
-| growth_habit = ?   <!--- tree, shrub, herbaceous, vine, etc -->
-| high = ?   <!--- 1m (3 ft) -->
+The flowers are white, borne in early spring (late March to early April) and late fall. It reaches a height of 1.5-1.8 meter and is about as wide. The alternate, simple, almost linear [[leaf|leaves]] are semideciduous.
-| wide =     <!--- 65cm (25 inches) -->
-| origin = ?   <!--- Mexico, S America, S Europe, garden, etc -->
+This plant produces [[phytotoxic]] cis-cinnamoyl [[glucoside]]s and cis-cinnamic acid <ref> [http://grande.nal.usda.gov/ibids/index.php?mode2=detail&origin=ibids_references&therow=750839 Phytochemistry. 2004 Mar., v. 65, no. 6 p. 731-739] </ref> The plant-growth inhibition characteristics can be used against diverse species as lettuce (''Lactuca saliva''), pigweed (''Amaranthus retroflexus''), red clover (''Trifolium pratense''), timothy (''Phleum pratense''), and bok choy (''Brassica rapa'' var ''chinensis''). The characteristics of these natural chemicals indicate a potential role of cis-cinnamic acid and its glucosides as [[Allelopathy|allelochemicals]]  (chemicals, released from plants, that cause an interaction between plants and other living organisms) for use as plant growth regulators and weed suppression in agricultural fields and in natural ecosystems. <ref> [http://cat.inist.fr/?aModele=afficheN&cpsidt=16779039 Journal of chemical ecology 2005, vol. 31, no3, pp. 591-601] </ref>

-| exposure = ?   <!--- full sun, part-sun, semi-shade, shade, indoors, bright filtered (you may list more than 1) -->
-| water = ?   <!--- frequent, regular, moderate, drought tolerant, let dry then soak -->
+In the horticultural trade one can obtain several varieties  of ''Spiraea thunbergii'', such as 'Mt Fuji' (white flowers), 'Ogon' (bright yellow flowers), 'Mellow yellow' and 'Fugino pink'
