Prefers moist, well-drained soils. Pruning is rarely needed. Will continue to flower sporadically on current season's growth. Browning leaves in early fall are due to plant going into dormancy earlier than most Weigela, allowing the plant to shut down earlier and prepare for winter. In southern states, plant in a partial shade location.
