Vinho Verde

Weigela florida

Weigela Vinho Verde is a great landscape plant with good vigor and a neat, rounded, upright habit that resembles a dome. It will periodically revert, like other variegated plants, but it will always return to entirely black. Although it looks great in a garden or container, beds and borders are where it looks best when it is massed or gathered.
