Great Alternative to Barberry
Give this stunner time to shine! Requires full sun to develop darkest foliage. Emerges burgundy-tinted green in spring then transforms to glossy, deep purple. The captivating foliage contrasts beautifully with yellow-leafed plants. Bright pink trumpet-shaped flowers in spring cue the hummingbirds. Great edger or as a dollop of dark in a perennial border. Weigela Midnight Wine Shine™ is an improved selection of Midnight Wine®. It sustains excellent cold hardiness and is less prone to tip dieback due to its parentage, Canadian variety Weigela. Tango. This tidy variety is a great thorn-free substitute for Berberis. Blooms on old wood. Proven Winners® are trialed and tested to be colorful, long blooming, carefree and easy to grow.

Weigela General Information

Weigela are deciduous shrubs that are very adaptable and easily grown. Prolific, trumpet-shaped flowers on gracefully arching branches. Adored by hummingbirds. Proven Winners® selections are trialed and tested to be colorful, long blooming, carefree and easy to grow. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Weigela Plant Care

Minimal pruning needed. If desired, prune after blooms have faded to shape.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!

100% Guarantee

We offer a 100% guarantee for all our perennials to reach you in good condition and to grow. If you're not satisfied, we'll reship or refund immediately. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns—we share your passion for gardening and want your new plants to thrive in your border!
