Colorful Spirea

Nov 28 sandstone Last spring when I planted this Magic Carpet Spirea bush its leaves were yellow-green.  During the summer, it was covered with lovely tiny pink flowers.  Throughout autumn it colorfully competed with its neighbor, the Burning Bush.  This photo was taken yesterday.  I wonder how long the color will last.
