Wine & Roses® Weigela Care

This Weigela is very easy to grow. It is deer resistant, drought-tolerant, and no maintenance once the roots are established.

This plant grows best in full sun and well-drained soil.

Water Weigelas deeply when planting and 2 times per week for the first 2 to 3 months while they are establishing. Once established, Weigelas are drought tolerant and only need to be watered in areas that are very hot or dry. We don't suggest this variety in containers due to the size they will become.

Add 1 to 2 inches of mulch after planting to prevent weeds, protect your plant's roots in extreme temperatures, and reduce watering needs.

Fertilize with our balanced slow-release fertilizer in spring. Fertilize it again in early fall if your soil is poor.

This Weigela can be pruned or sheared.   However, if you would like to prune your wine and roses Weigela, prune it after the bloom period has ended for best results.
