Hummingbirds love it
A Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Flowering Shrubs variety, Weigela Snippet® Dark Pink offers a tidal wave of pink, which drenches this handsome, cold hardy shrub from spring all the way into fall, presenting consistent color like few other plants in your landscape.
This lovely, long-blooming bush flourishes in full sun, and its incredibly floriferous nature makes it a real heavy hitter when you're trying to make a large impact in a relatively small space. Sometimes a flower is only pretty and noticeable when fully opened, but not on this weigela. Its countless magenta buds are a sight to behold and are just as lovely as the blooms, which are also coveted by hummingbirds. This weigela is compact and very easy to grow, as it doesn't need deadheading or any special treatment to really shine, and deer don't bother it.
