A beautiful shrub that blooms all summer, into fall, featuring bold red trumpet-shaped flowers, over deep green foliage; attracts hummingbirds; great for the back of flower beds, or for patio pots

Maroon Swoon Weigela features showy clusters of fragrant dark red trumpet-shaped flowers with creamy white anthers along the branches from early summer to early fall, which emerge from distinctive burgundy flower buds. It has dark green deciduous foliage which emerges burgundy in spring. The serrated pointy leaves do not develop any appreciable fall color.
It is a multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with a shapely form and gracefully arching branches. Its relatively coarse texture can be used to stand it apart from other landscape plants with finer foliage.
This shrub will require occasional maintenance and upkeep, and is best pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed. It is a good choice for attracting bees, butterflies and hummingbirds to your yard.
