GROWING TIPS FOR WEIGELA AND OTHER LESS HARDY “COLLECTOR” PLANTS
Provide the optimal planting site in the landscape with good summer heat accumulation and shelter from winter winds
Limit fertilizer and moisture late in the growing season which can stimulate new growth and reduce acclimation
Apply wood chips to protect roots and crown from winter cold in the absence of snow cover
Prune any dead wood in spring and promote new growth
