There’s nothing else quite like the New 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.
Discovered as a variegated sport on a seedling whose parents were golden ‘Briant’s Rubidor’ and burgundy ‘Naomi Campbell’. 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
- Grow in zones 5-8
- Plant in full sun (6+ hours daily)
Care: Regular pruning is not required; however, if you wish to prune, do so immediately after flowering. Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring.
