Weigela florida (Reblooming Weigela)
×
Color Name: Sonic Bloom® Pink
This is a humdinger of a weigela! Sonic Bloom Pink is a striking shrub noted for its long blooming season. From spring until the first frost, hot pink flowers are produced in great quantities and literally cover the bright green foliage. The trumpet-like flowers are adored by hummingbirds. Deadheading is not necessary for rebloom. Easy to grow, this flowering shrub is perfect to add a splash of cheerful color in the sunny border.
Growing Tips: Late to leaf out in spring. May require a bit of pruning to clean up winter damage - wait until new growth appears to do so.
Soil: Adapts to any well-drained site.
Pruning: Blooms on old wood - prune as needed after flowering, though this very compact, dwarf variety will rarely require it. Remove oldest stems every 3-5 years to encourage vigorous juvenile growth.
Uses: Shrub borders; mixed borders; edging; groundcover; containers.
