WEIGELA FLO SPILLED WINE
Grower Notes:

Spilled Wine® Weigela is a standout shrub celebrated for its bold and dramatic appearance. Its defining feature is the striking, glossy deep purple to almost black foliage that holds its intense color from spring until frost, providing a powerful contrast in any garden bed. In late spring, it boasts a profusion of vivid, trumpet-shaped, hot pink flowers. The vibrant blooms are highly attractive to hummingbirds and butterflies. As a dwarf variety, it has a compact, mounding, and spreading habit, typically reaching a modest size of 2-3 feet tall and 3-4 feet wide, making it a versatile choice for a variety of landscape uses, from container gardening to low-growing groundcover or border edging.

Spilled Wine® Weigela is easy to grow and requires very little maintenance. It is a robust and adaptable plant that is deer-resistant and generally free of pests and diseases. For the best foliage color and abundant flowering, it should be planted in full sun, though it can tolerate partial shade. While it prefers well-drained, moist soil, it is tolerant of a wide range of soil conditions. Pruning is seldom necessary due to its naturally neat form, but if you do need to shape it, do so immediately after the spring bloom, as it flowers on old wood.
