| Description | This dwarf masterpiece is a sport of Weigela florida 'Tango' . As the first dwarf variegated Weigela to be introduced, its tight habit and colorful foliage make it very versatile. Variegation changes depending on light exposure - whiter variegation in shade and pink variegation in full sun. Possible applications include an artistic drift along the edge of an annual or perennial bed or as an accent piece in a container. My Monet™ creates poetic beauty in any landscape and adds a splash of color to semi shady areas. |

| Care Instructions | Prefers well drained soil but is adaptable to many soil types. It is best to prune right after flowering ceases, but pruning is rarely needed. Slow growth rate. Will continue to flower sporadically on the current season's growth. Medium moisture. Browning leaves in early fall are a result of the plant going into dormancy earlier than most weigela. This is a benefit letting the plant shut down earlier and prepare for winter. In southern states, plant in a partial shade location. |
| History | This sport of Weigela florida 'Tango' is a Boskoop Royal Horticulture Society gold medalist and a Plantarium gold medalist. |
