Break the ‘bloom barrier’ with the Sonic Bloom® Red Weigela. Most weigela just bloom in early summer, a problem breeders couldn’t solve for years. Now that boundary has been broken, with an outstanding bush, growing 4 to 5 feet tall and wide, with healthy dark-green foliage. This fast-growing shrub is smothered in lipstick-red blooms through May and June, and then starts again in summer, carrying on right into the fall. It’s perfect to bring brightness and color to your summer garden, and adored by hummingbirds, butterflies and other pollinators.
Plant the Sonic Bloom® Red Weigela in full sun for the best results, although an hour or two of shade won’t hurt. Grow it in any well-drained soil, even clay and poor soils. Use some fertilizer in spring, and prune only after the first flowering is over. Free or pests or diseases, this bush is easy to grow and untroubled by deer.
