Weigela florida

The front garden Weigela florida is in bloom. A weigela is a great addition to a garden; they are very hardy plants and can thrive in light shade to full sun and tolerate a wide range of moisture and soil types. However, the soil should drain well for best growth. Weigelas can reach a height of 83-305 cm (6-10 ft) with a similar size spread. If pruned, weigelas should be pruned in late spring after they have finished blooming. There are several cultivars of weigela, including one with variegated leaves.
