Hummingbirds love it

A Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Flowering Shrubs variety, Weigela Snippet® Dark Pink offers a tidal wave of pink, which drenches this handsome, cold hardy shrub from spring all the way into fall, presenting consistent color like few other plants in your landscape.

This lovely, long-blooming bush flourishes in full sun, and its incredibly floriferous nature makes it a real heavy hitter when you're trying to make a large impact in a relatively small space. Sometimes a flower is only pretty and noticeable when fully opened, but not on this weigela. Its countless magenta buds are a sight to behold and are just as lovely as the blooms, which are also coveted by hummingbirds. This weigela is compact and very easy to grow, as it doesn't need deadheading or any special treatment to really shine, and deer don't bother it.

Living in a retirement community, I had a ramp added to the front of my house this summer. It required removing mature landscaping. After researching flowering plants for my growing zone I selected this for one of the 4 that I planted. I have other Proven Winners in my landscaping and they have done well so I wanted this brand. The plant came very well packaged. I have clay soil and did not think that I would be able to plant it myself. The plant sat on my porch for a week while I tried to find someone to plant it for me. The 1 quart plant was fairly small and it had been rainy so I decided to give it a shot and was able to dig the hole, followed directions carefully and successfully planted the little fella. The plant was very healthy looking when I unpacked it. After a couple of weeks in the ground it still looks healthy and happy. I am lookng forward to seeing how it holds up over the winter and develops next Spring.
