Weigela 'Sonic Bloom® Red'

Size: 4'-5' tall, 4'-5' wide

Bee-Friendly, Butterfly-Friendly, and Drought-Tolerant

Full sun outdoors (6-8+ hours of direct sun)

Water every 2-4 days for the first year until established (based on outdoor temperature & plant's water consumption).

Increase watering in the heat of summer and watch for wilting or browning as signs to increase watering frequency.

Weigela should be pruned regularly as older branches tend to produces less flowers as they age. Removing these every few years can help promote new, fresh growth and lots of flowers.

Every 3-5 years, remove 1/4 of the oldest, largest stems as close to the ground as possible. Prioritize branches that are rubbing against each other, as these will eventually create wounds in the bark. Afterwards, thin the canopy of any dead, damaged, diseased branches, or any that are crossing or rubbing, or growing towards the center of the plant. This helps create airflow and allows more light into the center of the plant.
