Introducing Weigela My Monet uspp 16, 824, a new sensation that is set to make a big impact in the world of plants and with your customers. This little gem is the perfect combination of a dense, neat plant form, stunning foliage color that continues to excite throughout the growing season, and superb flower color that only serves to intensify the already impressive foliage color. 'My Monet'™ is sure to become a favorite due to its ability to provide beautiful color in the landscape for an extended period without taking up too much space with its mounding, dense form.

Not only is it a fantastic addition to any landscape, it is also a customer magnet. Its cute and attractive appearance will ensure that it sells from spring to fall, making it one of your best impulse sales items. This sport of weigela 'Tango' boasts deep green foliage with creamy white edging, infused with varying intensities of pink. Deep reddish-pink flowers add to the mix in late May through June, but they are hardly necessary with the abundance of color already present.

'My Monet'™ is low-maintenance and thrives in full sun, making it a wonderful addition to any landscape. It 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 due to its slow growth rate. The plant will continue to flower sporadically on the current season's growth and prefers medium moisture.

Browning leaves in early fall are a result of the plant going into dormancy earlier than most weigela, benefiting the plant by allowing it to shut down earlier and prepare for winter. In southern states, it is recommended to plant in a partial shade location. For best results, plant in USDA zone 4-8, with a mature size of 18-24 inches in height and width.

The plant is delivered in a #2 size container, fully rooted in the soil and ready to be planted immediately upon arrival, weather permitting. It will be dormant with no leaves late fall through the winter months, which is normal. It will leaf out in spring and grows well in full sun. Its small stature makes this plant perfect for smaller landscape spots.
