Why Stunner® Weigela?

Few shrubs deliver this level of visual impact in such a compact footprint. The Stunner® Weigela blooms in late spring to early summer, producing dense clusters of deep pink to fuchsia flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Its manageable 3–4 ft. size makes it ideal for narrow borders, foundation plantings, or mass plantings where bold color is the goal.

Cold-hardy down to Zone 4 and heat-tolerant through Zone 7, this shrub performs reliably across a wide range of climates—north or south. Pair it with ornamental grasses or evergreen backdrops to let the blooms truly pop.

Care at a Glance

• Water regularly during establishment; reduce once rooted
• Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds
