General Care Strobe™ It's best for weigela to grow in wet, well-drained soil that gets only a little shade. For the best growth, water often, especially when it's dry, but make sure the dirt doesn't get too wet. Put mulch around the base to help keep the dirt moist and even out the temperature. To keep the plant's shape and help it grow new leaves, prune it after it blooms. Use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to encourage healthy growth all through the growing season. If you follow these easy care tips, you'll have a beautiful and long-lasting addition to your yard for many years.
