This pink-flowered weigela will create a stunning floral display in your garden from late spring until frost. Unlike most weigelas, this plant reblooms in waves all season long without deadheading. Its big, bold, trumpet-like pink flowers with darker pink centers can be used to create a stunning backdrop to perennial gardens or a lovely flowering hedge for warm weather privacy. It’s perennial so the leaves will drop off in the fall.

Weigela florida 'SMNWFRP' is deer resistant and hummingbirds, bees and butterflies are attracted to its flowers. Flowers appear on both new and old wood. This plant will reach 3 to 5 feet in width and height in a full sun location in an upright form. The Sonic Bloom series of Weigela was selected as the 2019 Flowering Shrubs of the Year.

Sonic Bloom Pure Pink Weigela Care

It’s recommended that you prune back 1 to 3 of the oldest stems of a mature plant in the fall or after the first spring bloom period to keep it lush and full. Sonic Bloom Pure Pink Weigela can be added to gardens in USDA hardiness zones 4 to 8 with moist, well-drained soil.

Sonic Bloom Pure Pink Weigela Spacing

You’ll want to plant Sonic Bloom Pure Pink Weigela in a location where you’ll be able to see its numerous pink flowers every day. It can be used to create a tall border for a perennial garden, a flowering hedge, as a specimen plant or in foundation plantings. It can be grown in a large container but will need to be pruned more often due to its large natural size. Space plants 3 to 5 feet apart depending on how much seasonal screening you want to create.

Landscaping Tip: Weigela has an elegant, arching habit that functions as an anchor to large beds. Select your favorite of the reblooming Sonic Bloom series for color that lasts much longer than conventional weigela.
