Growing & Maintenance Tips for Weigela x Crimson Kisses®
For best performance, plant in full sun and well-drained garden soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Incorporating compost at planting time can encourage healthy growth. Water regularly during the first season to establish roots, then provide supplemental moisture during prolonged dry spells. Feed with a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring, and prune shortly after flowering to maintain shape and preserve next season's blooms.
