Full sun or just an hour or two of shade is perfect the Cherry Towers Of Flowers® Weigela, which grows best in zones 6, 7 and 8. Any well-drained soil – even poor urban soils, rocky ground and clays – will support this great plant, which is very easy to grow. It is normally free of pests or diseases and ignored by deer. Some summer pruning after flowering will encourage lots of new growth for the following year’s blooms.
