Care Instructions
Plant Weigela Victoria in a sunny or partially shaded position with fertile, well-drained soil. Full sun encourages the best flower display and helps maintain the richest foliage colour.
Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Apply mulch around the base annually to help retain moisture and improve soil quality.
Prune immediately after flowering to maintain shape and encourage healthy new growth. Remove older branches periodically to keep the shrub vigorous.
