Main asset

the best purple-leaved weigela with deep pink flowers

Remarks

Upright habit making culture in container easier. Called WINE AND ROSES in USA.

The purplest among the weigelas. Dutch selection literally covered with high pink flowers in may. Dark purple foliage, very ornemental when seen against the light thank to the contrast veins/limb. Medium growth but good vigor.
