COLOR CHOICE® MY MONET® SUNSET WEIGELA

My Monet® 'Sunset' is an exceptional dwarf shrub is a showstopper, primarily grown for its stunning foliage that shifts from variegated shades of green, creamy yellow, and rosy pink in the spring and summer to fiery hues of red, orange, and gold in the autumn. Perfect for smaller gardens, containers, or as a low border plant, its compact, mounding form reaches just 12-18 inches tall and wide, requiring little to no pruning to maintain its neat shape. It produces delicate, trumpet-shaped, dark pink flowers in the spring that attract hummingbirds and butterflies, making it a beautiful and beneficial addition to any landscape.

Caring for Weigela 'My Monet Sunset' is straightforward, as it's a low-maintenance shrub. It thrives in full sun, which is crucial for its vibrant, multi-colored foliage. It can tolerate partial sun, but the leaf colors may not be as brilliant. It is quite adaptable to different soil types, including clay, but it prefers well-drained, moist soil. Once established, it is relatively drought-tolerant, but deep watering during extended dry periods will be beneficial, especially for container-grown plants which dry out more quickly.
