Weigela florida 'Wine & Roses'
W.f. 'Alexandra' PP # 10,772
WEIGELA 'WINE & ROSES'
Wine & Roses® is one of those fantastic plants that every garden must have. The dark burgundy-purple foliage along with intense rosy pink colored flowers has made this plant win several awards. The tubular flowers attract Hummingbirds and cut branches can be used in flower arrangements. This plant has a wide range of uses. It's an excellent choice for the mixed shrub / perennial border. Use it in combination with blue flowered plants like Perovskia or Caryopteris, or with yellow flowered plants like Coreopsis and Black Eyed Susan. When used in large masses the color impact is very impressive.
Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips:
Wine & Roses® is easy to grow, and adapts to most conditions. Feed once a year with a slow release fertilizer.
To give your plant the best start possible, we include a free fertilizer packet.
