Notes

'Sonic Bloom Wine' weigela (Weigela Florida 'Sonic Bloom Wine') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, hedges, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It blooms in early to late spring and again in early to late summer, and hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees visit the flowers. Deer tend to pass it by. Its arching habit suits a loose, informal planting.

Pairs well with Smooth hydrangea, Standing Ovation little bluestem, Christmas fern, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
