Weigela florida (Reblooming Weigela)
Color Name: Sonic Bloom® Punch
At 2.5-4' tall and wide, Sonic Bloom Punch weigela may be the smallest, most compact plant in the Sonic Bloom series, but it has big impact in the garden or landscape. That's thanks to the incredible vibrant punch-pink color of its blooms, which smother the plant in spring, obscuring the foliage, and come back repeatedly through summer and fall to extend the show. Foliage has a handsome bronze color that provides excellent contract.
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.
