Weigela florida Java Red
Common Name: Java Red Weigela
Java Red is a compact, mounding deciduous weigela with foliage that combines green and purple tones. Reddish buds open into deep pink flowers in summer. The dark leaves give it a place among mixed perennials and along smaller shrub borders.
Choose full sun and soil with good drainage. Water regularly as the roots establish. Its moderate growth and broad outline also suit foundation plantings.
