Uses Notes: Weigela are excellent plants for creating privacy or screening off an unsightly feature like an air conditioner. They also make excellent landscaping plants and work nicely in perennial and flower gardens too.
Maintenance Notes: Weigela are not fussy about soil or care. Plant in full sun for the very best floral display, but some shade isn’t too harmful, particularly in hotter climates. Regular pruning is not strictly required; however, if you wish to prune, do so immediately after flowering. Weigela are very resistant to damage from rabbits or deer.
