Weigela 'Black and White'
Weigela florida ‘Black and White’ is a compact deciduous shrub with remarkable contrast, prized for its very dark, almost black, purple foliage and its dazzling white spring blooms. This weigela forms a dense, rounded bush that is wider than it is tall, ideal for borders, low beds, and foundation plantings. The pure white tubular flowers abundantly cover the branches, creating a striking luminous effect against the dark foliage and effectively attracting pollinators. Even after flowering, its foliage retains a strong ornamental presence that structures landscape designs all season long. Hardy and easy to grow, Weigela florida ‘Black and White’ prefers well-drained soil and a sunny to partially shaded exposure to intensify the depth of its coloration. It is an excellent choice for creating contrast and elegance in the garden.
