Common Name: 'Fine Wine' Weigela
Fine Wine weigela (Weigela florida ‘Bramwell’) forms a compact mound of dark purple foliage. Rich pink flowers cover the branches in spring, with occasional repeat flowering possible in summer.
Its small leaves give a finer texture than larger purple-leaved weigelas. The rounded outline fits low foundation plantings, border groups, and containers while providing foliage color throughout the growing season.
Give it full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly during establishment. Shape immediately after the main spring bloom when necessary, keeping the shrub’s naturally compact habit in mind.
