Weigela ‘Foliis Purpureis’ – Striking purple-bronze foliage and showy, trumpet-shaped pink flowers that bloom in late spring to early summer. A cultivar of Weigela florida, it typically grows to about 4–6 feet (1.2–1.8 meters) tall and wide, making it ideal for borders, mixed shrub plantings, or as a colourful focal point. The dark foliage provides beautiful contrast in the garden, and the flowers are attractive to hummingbirds and pollinators. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. Low-maintenance and hardy, it’s a favourite for adding long-lasting colour and texture to landscape designs.
