Weigela florida 'SMNWFGC'
Weigela - Wine & Spirits®
In late spring, you'll love the bright green-white flowers covering the stems of this Weigela. The trumpet shaped blooms transition to pure white and attract hummingbirds and butterflies. This low maintenance rounded shrub has rich, dark burgundy-green foliage which is a striking contrast to the lush flowers. Deer resistant, too! This is a showy accent plant to enhance your landscape in shrub borders, mixed borders, containers, edging. Plant in full sun. Blooms on old wood, prune if desired after flowering. Remove oldest stems every 3-5 years to encourage new growth.
