Weigela Bubbly Wine (Weigela florida 'Bubbly Wine'). Weigela florida 'Bubbly Wine' is a compact and elegant ornamental shrub that captivates with its vibrant blossoms and easy-to-care-for nature. It stands out with its deep pinkish-red, bell-shaped flowers, which bloom profusely in spring and early summer, bringing a touch of vibrant color to your garden. What makes this shrub particularly unique is the luminosity of its flowers, combined with glossy green foliage that accentuates their beauty. This Weigela is also highly valued for its delicate fragrance, attracting pollinators, especially bees and hummingbirds.

To plant Weigela Bubbly Wine 'Bubbly Wine', choose a suitable exposure: full sun or partial shade. The recommended soil is well-drained, slightly acidic. Water the root ball before planting it in the ground and ensure that water can drain after planting. During establishment, check the soil moisture by hand before watering again. Distribute mulch around the base, leaving the crown clear. Avoid systematic fertilizer applications without considering the soil's richness. In Quebec, choose a period when the ground is thawed and easy to work.

Allow a width of 1.2 m (3.9 ft) to arrange this plant's space in the garden. The indicated height of 1.5 m (4.9 ft) helps choose its position relative to neighboring plants. Maintain access to the base to weed, check moisture, and remove damaged parts. Combine this variety with plants whose light and water needs are compatible. If you are considering a container, first check that its volume and drainage are suitable for root development. Potted roots are more exposed to cold than those planted in the ground.
