There’s nothing else quite like the Vinho Verde® Weigela! After years of positive feedback from trial garden visitors during its evaluation, Proven Winners® is pleased to offer this unique selection, characterized by lime green leaves set off with a bold, black margin. Like all variegated plants, it will occasionally revert, but it reverts to all black, so will not overgrow the plant. A light crop of red-pink flowers appears in late spring, but the foliage - coupled with an irresistibly neat habit - is the primary reason to grow this beauty!
- 3-5 feet tall and wide at maturity
- Hardy in zones 5-8, be sure to check your USDA zone to ensure success
- Plant in full sun (6+ hours daily)
- Space plants 3-5 feet apart for best results
- Maintains green with black edges foliage spring through frost
- Produces reddish pink flowers late spring through early summer
- Blooms on old wood
- Great for borders, containers, landscapes, mass plantings
- Attracts hummingbirds and resists deer
- Foliage interest
Our deciduous shrubs are entering their natural dormancy phase. As part of this process, foliage is turning colors, drying out, and falling off—this is completely normal! Shedding leaves helps the plants conserve energy and prepare for the next growing season. Rest assured, your shrubs will wake up and thrive again when it's time in your growing zone. Dormancy is how they prepare for a healthy, vibrant comeback as the seasons change!
Care: Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring and mid-summer. Prefers well-drained soils but is fairly adaptable to other soil types. If desired, prune immediately after the spring bloom.
