SONIC BLOOM® Red Weigela

Light: It gets the best foliage color and highest bloom count in full sun.Soil: Adaptable to most soils, except those that stay wet. Water: Average water needs. Fertilizing: Nothing special required. If desired, you may apply a granular fertilizer formulated for woody plants in late winter/early spring when the soil is workable. Pruning: Rejuvenation pruning every 3 to 5 years is recommended – this is the process of removing 1/3 of the thickest branches all the way to the ground. Maintains its habit naturally, no need to prune to shape. Winter dieback can be pruned out once you see new growth in the springtime. It will show you what is dead and can be removed. Other: Makes a great cut flower or foliage filler for arrangements. Also, try not to be alarmed in the spring, as it can be late to leaf out.
