VINHO VERDE™ WEIGELA -
4-5 Feet Tall 4-5 Feet Wide--
Vinho Verde™ Weigela is a unique and highly sought-after deciduous shrub, celebrated primarily for its extraordinary foliage and tidy habit. Unlike many Weigelas prized for their profuse flowers, this Proven Winners® ColorChoice® selection puts on a continuous show with its leaves. Each lime-green leaf is artfully framed by a dramatic, bold black margin, creating a crisp and refreshing effect, much like the Portuguese wine for which it is named. An interesting and desirable characteristic of Vinho Verde™ is that when it occasionally reverts, it does so to an all-black form, which will not outgrow the plant and can be left for added color or easily pruned out. While the foliage is the main attraction, it does produce a light crop of charming reddish-pink flowers in late spring and early summer on old wood, which adds a subtle layer of beauty and attracts hummingbirds.
Vinho Verde™ Weigela is easy to care for and thrives in full sun (at least six hours of direct sunlight per day). It adapts well to a range of soil types, including clay, as long as the soil is rich, evenly moist, and well-drained. Vinho Verde™ Weigela is noteworthy for its compact and neat growth habit, typically reaching a height and width of 3 to 5 feet, which eliminates the need for frequent pruning. This makes it an ideal choice for mixed borders, where its unique color can provide a bold anchor, as a tidy groundcover, or for lining walkways and garden beds.
