The weigela flowers from May
When do the weigelias bloom?
Easy to cultivate and lush flowering Weigelie is one of the most popular flower shrubs in local gardens. In addition, it is still versatile, because it is suitable for both the planting of a hedge and for the container planting.
How long do weigelias bloom?
Most of the varieties of weigelias bloom from about May over several weeks very lush. As a rule, the flowering period lasts until June, sometimes even into July. With good care and in a sunny spot, there is another after-flowering in the early autumn. However, this is much less abundant than the main flower.
In which color does the Weigelie blossom?
Probably the best-known variety of the genus Weigelia is the crimson-flowering Bristol Ruby. In autumn, it also shows a beautiful light brown to golden yellow foliage color. To make it look good, give it enough space. Keep in mind that the Bristol Ruby can grow to a height of two to three meters and become quite a large shrub.
Very rarely, pure white flowers are seen in the Weigelie. If you would like to have this color in your garden, then plant the variety "Snowflake". As with this Weigelie, the Gold Weigela also bears its flower color in the name. It blooms golden yellow.
