Proven Winners® Wine & Spirits® Weigela (Weigela florida ‘Wine & Spirits®’)

Proven Winners® Wine & Spirits® Weigela (Weigela florida ‘Wine & Spirits®’) is a compact deciduous shrub known for its deep burgundy foliage and bright pink trumpet-shaped blooms. The dark foliage creates rich contrast throughout the growing season while the vivid flowers attract hummingbirds and pollinators in late spring and early summer.

This weigela maintains a more compact growth habit than larger varieties, making it ideal for smaller gardens, borders, foundation plantings, and container landscapes. The colourful foliage remains attractive even when the shrub is not in bloom, adding season-long ornamental value.

In Alberta, Wine & Spirits® performs best in full sun and well-drained soil. It is cold-hardy and relatively drought-tolerant once established, making it a dependable shrub for Prairie landscapes and urban gardens.
